Not sure what is being asked here. But anyway, currently Graphite support is
not enabled on Mac OS X, and with the current state of LibreOffice’s low level
text layout, it is probably not a simple task.

We have no UI whatsoever, nor ODF support, to control smart font features.
Graphite features are enabled using a “hack” that appends a feature string to
the font name to be parsed internally, but that is a non-standard behaviour not
part of the ODF spec and is unlikely to be supported by any ODF implementation,
bug 58941 is about better handling of this at the format level.

Again, I’m not sure what is being asked here.
