(Get the code!)
Just filed a bug yesterday (sadly, I did not find /this/ bug until today) that is a dup of this one - bug 121294). I have a small screencast showing the problem with an OTF font that I recently acquired myself. It's a shame, because the font is really good looking, IMHO.
Is there any way to make OOo use the font rendering that comes with Ubuntu? IIRC, OOo uses a lot of its own private copies of shared libs and that is one reason that it has other issues, as well, including increased memory usage because it isn't sharing with the libs that the rest of the system is using.
