Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 123060
Duplicated .pfb fonts with non-duplicate .afm results in neither being available
Last modified: 2014-03-02 09:00:42 UTC
Type 1 fonts that have not .afm file, are never avaliable in OOo. For example, on my Debian system, URW Chancery L font is in this case but is found in this files : /usr/share/fonts/type1/gsfonts/z003034l.pfb exists. A symbolic link on this file is in /usr/share/fonts/X11/Type1/. But the file /usr/share/fonts/type1/gsfonts/z003034l.afm is not linked in this directory. If I remove the links in /usr/share/fonts/X11/Type1/, all fonts are avaliable because OOo does not see duplicated fonts. This is a regression in OOo 4.0.0 fixed in LibreOffice 3.5.2.
