Instead I have what appear to be every south- and east-Asian language
fonts.
I need to remove those and restore the fonts I regularly use, such as
Baker Signet and Bitstream Amerigo.
My web searches suggest that LO automagically finds
/usr/share/fonts/ and
its contents, but that's not what happens here. I need to fix this
situation
quickly and need advice from those with more intimate knowledge.

This is weird . . .
I did not see "tuffy" in the font list within LibreOffice till I looked
into the usr/share/fonts/truetype and /opentype. I never knew I had some
of these fonts till I looked. There are some of these fonts that were
in my ".font" folder and also in the "usr/share/. . ." folder. Most of
the ".font" folder fonts are not in the "usr/share/ . ." list.
The real question is - how safe would it be to removed fonts in the
"user/share/fonts/truetype" or "/opentype"? What would be the safest to
do the add/remove using Ubuntu MATE 16.04?
I have added and removed fonts in the ".font" folder, sometime on a
daily or weekly basis. I tend to have 300 to 500 ".ttf" and/or ".otf"
files in the ".font" folder. I tend to add special fonts into that
folder as needed for a project.
