Description Unknown 2003-06-11 06:56:43 UTC
After I upgraded to OOo 1.1 beta 2, I noticed several of my fonts were strange
or missing.  In particular, the Nimbus fonts are missing.

I examined share/psprint/pspfontcache from the OOo 1.1 beta (1) installation and
found lines like this:

 FontCacheDirectory:/usr/share/fonts/default/Type1
 File:n021024l.pfb
 1;1043875650;1
 Nimbus Roman No9 L
 0;NimbusRomNo9L-MediItal;2;8;5;2;1;964;324;288;0;1230;669;1230;669;n021024l.afm

In the share/psprint/psfontcache file in my beta 2 installation I have this:

 EmptyFontCacheDirectory:1049256124:/usr/share/fonts/default/Type1

So, whereas beta 1 sees font files in that directory, beta 2 does not.
I'm running Red Hat 9.

This forum note also describes the same problem on a debian machine:

I believe Issuezilla issue 14836 might be a related issue.

In beta2 the afm files belonging to pfb (Type1) files were not
searched for adjacent to thy type 1 font file and therefore neglected
(as OOo needs both: font and metric file). This was fixed with issue
12936.
