How about making Cyrillic script available? Or am I missing something? It doesn't appear in the drop-down font menu.

I think you are missing the point here. Cyrillic is not a font but an alphabet - a set of characters that may or may not appear in any font. Cyrillic characters appear in a number of fonts on my system, but I cannot say which, if any, came with OpenOffice. In general, fonts do not need to come with applications: OpenOffice should inherit any fonts properly installed in your operating system.

o  Go to Insert | Special Character...  .
o In the Subset drop-down menu, look for "Cyrillic". If it appears, you will see Cyrillic characters; if not, try another font from the Font drop-down menu.

The next question you'll want to ask is how to get your system to allow you to type Cyrillic characters directly, as if you had a Russian (or whatever) keyboard. I'll leave others to explain that.

I trust this helps.
