     You can also manage your fonts by using styles. Each style has a Font
tab where you can select the one you want to use with that style. In the
documentation section of the OOo web site, there are manuals explaining how
to use styles. In the German Section of this web site, there should be at
least some of these manuals in German if you prefer.

Thanks Dan,
but this steps are not "radical" enough for me! I wont only my "approved" fonts to show up in the fonts drop down menu of the writer gui at all. I am working with templates ans styles very often - but none the less a good (small) collection of fonts in that drop down menu is very usefull, e.g. when creating new styles/documents.

Isn't there any possibility to disable the loading of the "general" fonts on my system? I can not quite believe this :-(

I've never encountered a word processor or publishing program that does this, so far as I know. Do you, yourself, know of any program that allows filtering of fonts, other than dedicated font managers?

Normally such a demand is satisfied by a font manager utility. Those I have used have always worked globally on any particular machine, but I understand there are some now available that can be configured to show or hide particular sets of fonts in respect to particular applications.

Whether there are any such available for Linux I do not know.
