[texhax] How do you reduce character spacing?

[William F. Adams]

Well, Arial Narrow is a clone of Helvetica Narrow w/ is (well, was 
originally) an algorithmically condensed Helvetica.

If you don't need much you could use something like:

  \documentclass{minimal}
  \usepackage{graphicx}
  \usepackage{pslatex}
  \begin{document}
  \scalebox{.5}[1]{\textsf{This is narrow}}
  \end{document}

But I think the pslatex package is out-dated, so don't use that...

To alter inter-character space but not character shapes you could use 
the soul package.
