Wellcome to the discution ... Let me just give a message from a previous

Of course the issue is VERY important. OpenTypes are a standard. Did OO would 
get where it got, if didn't supported MS formats; the facto standards of 
office applications?

Like I previously posted, I solve the problem converting OT to TT fonts. But 
that can't obliterate that the problem exist.

Of  course that is the strength of an open project, but as I pointed in a 
previous post, seams that it's possible to implement OT fonts in Linux, just 
using the rendering engine from X. I'm assuming that OO has a modular 
architecture.

Anyway, if someone will point me a previous thread were this issue was 
discussed and the reasons present, I'would like to know them.

Let's hope it would help you.
