It's not unique to LO. I don't have slackware (I use Ubuntu), however I did find this for slackware: <http://nigglingaspirations.blogspot.com/2009/10/installing-ttf-fonts-in-slackware-122.html> > >> The question is: what type of fonts are they?

No. I am asking for the type of the specific font that you cannot display in LO but can in other applications. Pick _one_ font for testing, then tell us the exact filename of that font: $ ls -al <fontnameof> That way we can help try to figure out if it's opentype, truetype, or some other font that LO may (or may not) be having issues with. -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to [email protected] In case of problems unsubscribing, write to [email protected] Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
