Greetings:
I have (Mac) Mariner Write RTF documents which contain the fonts Balzac,
Aristocrat LET, English 111 Vivace among others, and when I import or
open these MW documents into OOo these fonts aren't only not rendered in
OOo but show up blank in the font window of the Formatting toolbar.
Oddly enough, I can find them if I scroll the window and resurrect the
fonts in the documents, and if I save this document as OOo RTF and
reload it the fonts remain intact and properly appear in the window too
as normal. As a check I loaded the original MW doc into Apple's basic
text editor, Text Edit, and all the fonts normally appear. So I assume
that OOo somehow filters out or kills how some fonts are rendered from
imported non-OOo RTF docs but faithfully retains them in its own RTF
versions. This would seem an RTF import flaw to me. Also, by lots of
trial and error, I found that OOo will keep images embedded in RTF
documents that are imported or opened from other word processors,
provided the image in the RTF document is BMP with a 1:1 or zero
compression.
