Hi,

I'm trying to install a Helvetica Neue font that is more robust and of a higher quality than the system font. however, I keep getting a message that says that the font has a name that conflicts with the system font of the same name. I'm not sure why this is as I have several versions of other fonts on my computer. I don't want to be stuck with the Mac System Helvetica neue because it is pretty limited.

I would very much appreciate any advice as to how to get around this. Can I uninstall the system font or would that cause problems?
 
I dont see why you couldnt uninstall the font, maybe you should just rename it and have it listed as "Helvetica HQ" or something. Ive always found the built-in one fine, where did you get the more robust version?
