No, I have been trying with open office too. Problem is in istallation
of fonts. I have followed the below instruction,
Telling XWindows about your fonts
Now, enter the following commands in sequence from a terminal
window:
cd /usr/local/fonts/ttf
ttmkfdir > fonts.scale
mkfontdir
If you have chkfontpath
RedHat users can enter the following command to add the directory:
chkfontpath -a /usr/local/fonts/ttf
If you don't have chkfontpath
If you don't have the chkfontpath command, you will have to edit the
file /etc/X11/xfs/config (or /etc/X11/fs/config), find the line which
starts with "catalog=", and add your directory at the end of the list,
separated by a comma.
After doing the above when I type
chkfontpath -a /usr/local/fonts/ttf
It says command not found
