Strange. For me Libreoffice looks in /usr/share/fonts/TTF (system wide location for ttf fonts) and uses those (I'm on a Debian based distro). So, all I do is copy any .ttf fonts to that directory and they are ready for use. This might be something set at compilation time or in your case, it was determined prior to it's pre-compiled package state. Perhaps find the directory that this specific Libreoffice package looks for fonts and dump fonts there or symlink to your system wide fonts directory. Any Ubuntu folks out there familiar with this package in Ubuntu repos? -- Jeremy MountainJohnson Jeremy.MountainJohnson at gmail.com On Thu, May 19, 2011 at 4:46 PM, gregrwm <tclug1 at whitleymott.net> wrote: > my hardy openoffice has various fonts, which as far as > i can recall came with the hardy openoffice packages. > > lucid openoffice doesn't have these fonts. > natty libreoffice doesn't have these fonts. > > googling yields endless noise about installing fonts, > but i'm still in the dark.. > > how do i > enumerate what openoffice fonts are installed, or > enumerate what openoffice fonts are in a doc, or > incorporate the fonts into the docfile, or > anything smarter you can suggest? > > i don't have to redo all my docs do i? perhaps > there's a magic package that has the fonts i'm wanting? > > anyone? > tia. > _______________________________________________ > TCLUG Mailing List - Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota > tclug-list at mn-linux.org > http://mailman.mn-linux.org/mailman/listinfo/tclug-list >
