I have LO 3.5.7.2 on a recent fresh install and up to date Xubuntu 12.04. I have done a lot of DTP since I bought my first computer in 1978, recently mostly with Scribus, but occasionally I use LO. I was very interested in this discussion of the Linux Libertine font and its amazing abilities with the typography toolbar extension. I downloaded and installed Linux Libertine from the Ubuntu repos, and also installed the typography toolbar 1.1. The font appears fine and the toolbar appears as I think it is supposed to. But there is a problem. I opened an unimportant LO file to experiment with, selected some text that had a number in it, applied Linux Libertine font, then clicked on the old style numerals button in the toolbar. Nothing happened. I repeated this with ligatures, tried true small caps, and various other features of the toolbar, but the text flickered for an instant and no changes were made. Of course I closed LO and restarted it, but still nada. I am guessing there is some fundamental setting somewhere that must be turned on for this to work.
