I did receive a reply on the [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list and
there is a procedure to have the Fondu run again in case fonts were
missed.  I think I will look to see if all of my fonts were picked up as
I do Quality Assurance testing for the Mac OS X Power PC and Intel ports
for American English.

The procedure is as follows:


For system fonts :

system_fondu_done (or no system fondu) is inside the OpenOffice.org
application.  To access this file.  Open the MacIntosh HD folder by
clicking on the MacIntosh HD icon on the desktop.  Click on Applications
and then click on but do not start the OpenOffice.org 2.0 item. 
cntrl+click to bring up a menu.  Click on the "Show Package Contents"
item. Navigate to Contents -> MacOS -> share -> fonts -> truetype and
then drag the system_fondu_done item to the trash.

User fonts : in ~/Library/Application\ Support/OpenOffice.org\
2.0/userfonts/ , you will find user_fondu_done (or no_user_fondu) file

-Just remove these two files, and restart OpenOffice.org

Note:  The ~/Library directory is the Library directory accessed when
you click on the MacIntosh HD icon on the desktop and then click on the
user name which is logged into your Mac.
