Well, I am not much of a guru in OO.o inner workings, but until recently there were two versions of OO.o, one patched with the x fontserver support and the one without it. Latter should have the fonts added with Printer Administration tool so symlinks are created. Only after that my 1.x version was able to print correctly. I can see that my 2.0.1 from Gentoo still has this "feature", but I did not test it enough to see if the printing is right in all cases. I am not sure what version you get with your Mandriva.
