I have tried with both the default set by restoring to defaults which has Times 
as the main font in writer and Arial for Calc and also setting my default fonts 
to something else. I've modified preferences and also restored them to defaults

Doesn't matter what I do I still have the problem where periodically documents 
that were perfectly fine the last time I opened them, will suddenly have 
invisible fonts. When it happens the drop down menu of fonts has a blank line 
where that font name should be.

No rhyme or reason for why or when the problem crops up.

Nothing I've tried fixes the help file problem. It's always totally blank no 
matter what I do. Makes it impossible to get any help if I can't read it.
