OpenOffice.org - Using TTF's
Adding and using True Type Fonts (TTF's) in OpenOffice.org is extremely easy under Linux. One does not even need to add them to the global system, but simple need to copy the TTF's to a certain directory in your $HOME, and restart OpenOffice.org.
Copy all the TTF's you want to:
~/.openoffice/user/fonts/
or
~/.ooo-2.0/user/fonts/
or
~/.ooo3/user/fonts/
... depending on what version of OpenOffice.org you have.
That's it .. have fun ;-)
