Installed fonts don't work in Open Office 3
I installed some fonts a while ago. They worked fine untill OpenOffice 3.
The fonts show up in the list, but the Open office doesn't know what they look like, so when I type with them, it's just some standard font.
They work fine in abiword.
I'd reinstall them, but how?

Re: Installed fonts don't work in Open Office 3
What do you mean with "installed fonts"?
OOo was able to menage systemwide installed fonts from our font-xxx and ttf-xxx packages. And it could handle fonts that were installed with FontOOo into the users homedir. That is deprecated and has been dropped in OOo3.0 so that now only system-fonts are supported.

By installed fonts I was refering to fonts I installed myself. I installed them with the kde font installer, which no longer works in kde4. (I primarily use gnome)
Is there any way I can get these fonts to work?
