Description Robert Golding 2006-11-12 18:22:49 UTC
I installed Openoffice (after uninstalling openoffice-bin) and found I had no access to my PCF fonts.  I tried to run "oopadmin" then "spadmin" but they don't seem to exist with this build.

Perhaps that is the bug, "OOo printer admin" missing?

All these fonts were accessible in openoffice-bin, and Printer Admin also existed with openoffice-bin, so I could, If I needed to, manually install missing fonts.

They are also available in InkScape, The GIMP and I can see them in the Gnome Font selector, so Xorg is supplying them.

The only bug I found in search (#79570) is Resolved-Invalid, with this post:
<------- Comment #1 From Andreas Proschofsky  2005-01-26 07:30 PST  [reply] -------

OpenOffice is not supposed to find all your fonts, the official way to add
fonts IS to add them through oopadmin, so this is not a bug.

But: I've modified the wrapper a few days ago, so all fonts in /usr/share/fonts
should be added automatically in the future, this also works for me with the
baekmuk-fonts. If you want to have that behaviour please emerge sync and
re-merge openoffice.
