Description wsvries 2006-12-18 10:04:21 UTC 
OO-writer v2.0 build 2.0.0.1 on Linux KDE, Suse 10.0
Installed test STIX fonts (STIX: app. 7000 scientific characters and symbols to
be distributes for free in 2007, www.stixfonts.org).
Writer cannot recognize them. Other applications (e.g. Firefox) work OK with the
fonts.
The fonts are OpenType based on Type1. Opentype based on on TrueType does work
OK, but that is not what we want to distribute.
Test font files also work OK with OO-writer under WinXP.

Could you please attach a sample font which will not be recognize, to this issue?
It will be essential for reproducing the bug. If you do not want to share,
please send directly to mru@openoffice.org. Thanks a lot!
Comment 2 hdu@apache.org 2006-12-20 13:17:51 UTC 
Because CFF-glyph subsetting is not yet implemented in OOo, it cannot print with
these fonts on UNX platforms, yet. Writer will only use fonts it can print.

Same root cause as in issue 43029.
