--- Comment #2 from Jeremy <[email protected]> ---
Ability to specify font manually (by typing in name, regardless of it being
installed or not), rather than just select from list is only of relevance to
this issue in creating test case to demonstrate system behaviour (and is not of
itself an issue - there are perfectly valid (if unusual) reasons for doing so).

Testing after upgrading LO to 4.0.3.3 (still Windows XP) shows same behaviour.  

Problem originally showed up to me when:
1) Received document (.doc file) from colleague, using PT Sans fonts (which I
did not have). Whole document had seen in substituted, seriffed, font, so
obviously wrong: but not unexpected behaviour OO/LO have long done this for
uninstalled fonts.
2) Obtained and installed PT Sans font - including both PT Sans and PT Sans
Bold fonts (as .ttf files and entries in Windows Control Panel Display).
Sections of document specified as PT Sans now ok; sections in PT Sans Bold
still in substitute font => this issue (as font now installed, so should be
used)

Determination that font name ("PT Sans Bold") could be entered manually, and
that in some places gave 'not installed' message (although Windows says it is),
came later in trying things out. 

Also found same behaviour with other installed fonts, e.g. Arial & Arial Bold.
