No, OpenType works fine in all Linux programs except OOo. OpenType has
been fully supported under Linux since before they were supported on
Windows. Some of us have been shaking our heads about the fact that OOo
does not recognize OpenType fonts on Linux for a very long time.
Evidently the developers think that being able to use standard font
formats is not important. We use Linux, so we don't matter.

If you must create something that requires an OpenType font, create the
document in OOo using a style. Set the font in the style to whatever is
available in OOo. Then open Scribus with a new document and create a
style with the same exact name, but set the font in the style to the
OpenType font you want. Flow the OOo text into Scribus and it will take
the OpenType font that you set in the Scribus style.

Or better yet, just do everything in Koffice or Scribus from the
beginning.
