Hi :) That is strange and i'm sure "Webmaster at Kracked Press" has probably mentioned it before but it might be worth posting a bug-report about it. It's a bit weird to have to keep copies of fonts in several different places. http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/BugReport I have a feeling that short-cuts (="links" in linux and perhaps Mac?) mightwork well but it's still weird and inconvenient.

So I'm still confused. The asterisk means multiple suffixes. In this case, 1152a___.afm, 1152a___.inf, 1152a___.pfb, and 1152a___.pfm. I mistyped afm as atm. Well, I guess LO is different from other apps in that it cannot see fonts in /usr/share/fonts, but does in ~/.fonts. Very strange. Regardless, I will make softlinks in ~/.fonts to the directories in /usr/share/fonts.
