Hi all,
obviously Apple released a X11 update with corrupt "Vera" Fonts.
It is reported, that the FontBook application recognize the font as
"...Dont use this fonts"
But there is a discussion of a workaround:
Bug is reported on OO.org: 71096
http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=71096
and the workaround is discussed on the trinity.neooffice.org - list
http://trinity.neooffice.org/modules.php?
name=Forums&file=viewtopic&t=3414
The suggested workaround:
Open the terminal application and type:
sudo mkdir -p /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TTF.bad
<return>
enter your password
<return>
sudo mv /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TTF/Vera*.ttf /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/
fonts/TTF.bad
<return>
the code will create a new folder "TTF.bad" and will copy all "Vera"
fonts to this folder. This must be done with administrator "root"
rights (sudo)
Hope this helps.
thanks to Pavel and Patrick

Till yesterday I was an happy user of OpenOffice 1.0.4... but today
Apple released an update to its X11 component. Well, since this
update
my OpenOffice stopped to work: it just dies right after the splash
screen is shown.
I tried to re-install it, with no success.
Is anyone else experiencing this too?
There have been several reports on the forum as well, to the same
effect.
