PDF::Builder::Resource::Font::CoreFont::helveticaboldoblique β bestie, this is the font-specific info page for the bold weight + slanted Helvetica font π
π what even is this
Okay so this little module is the glow-up corner of PDF::Builder where the bold + oblique (slanted) flavor of Helvetica keeps all its font-specific deets. It's the one carrying the receipts for that particular weight-and-slant combo π
Real talk though β the metrics and the glyph list in here? They're from the Arial typeface. Not Helvetica. Arial. Yes, the two are cousins, we don't make the rules, we just document them πβ¨
So if you came here looking for Helvetica-exclusive glyph lore and got Arial's instead, that's not a bug, that's just... the vibe. The module said what it said, periodt π
