How was the document created? I did a test by creating an LO and MS Word doc using Georgia in WinXP - just a simple: Georgia Regular. Georgia Bold. Georgia Italic. Georgia Bold Italic.
I then opened those (the .odt and .doc) in Ubuntu 10.10 with the ttf-mscorefonts-installer installed. The fonts look exactly the same as the Windows version. I tested with LO 3.3.4 and 3.4.3. I then tested those Ubuntu 11.10 w/LO 3.4.3 _without_ ttf-mscorefonts-installer installed and exported to a pdf so that I can see what the substitute fonts are. They are: DejaVuSans DejaVuSans-Bold DejaVuSans-Oblique DejaVuSans-BoldOblique I then installed ttf-mscorefonts-installer and reopened the same document. I then exported to a pdf & the fonts are: Georgia Georgia-Bold Georgia-Italic Georgia-BoldItalic You my want to export your doc to a pdf and then look at the File|Properties|Fonts and see what they are. -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: [email protected] Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ 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
