Bug Description

After copying several Mac OS X style .dfont files to my Ubuntu machine, the fonts did show up in GNOME applications like AbiWord, but OpenOffice.org doesn't seem to recognize them.

As far as I can descern .dfont files are a variation on normale TrueType fonts, where a single font file contains multiple styles (Regular, Bold, Italic, ...).

There are no new official OpenOffice.org releases in Ubuntu packaging anymore => Won't Fix

If the problem persists, please mark this bug as "also affects project Libreoffice" or "also affects distribution Libreoffice (Ubuntu)" if that has not happened already.

Please leave references to upstream OpenOffice.org bugs in place to allow cross pollination.
