I only referred to that as it shows making a ~/.fonts folder etc. Please
create and put the BakerSignet font in there & see if LO picks it up.

Not really, as I don't know what the astrisk is in '1152a___.*' - I know
of no fonts that are listed as .* Nor are there any fonts that use a
.atm extension. .atm is used for the Adobe Type Manager font
catalog/file & ATM fonts are generally Type 1 fonts with an .pfb, .afm
and .pfm (and possibly .pfa) files. So I'm still confused.

See:

for added info on font extensions.
