for example if you copy a directory (which contains fonts) to /usr/share/fonts/truetype by the command:

sudo cp -r fontsdirname? /usr/share/fonts/truetype

then those fonts will not appear in openoffice. I did not have this problem in Ubuntu 8.04. And if you know look at /usr/share/fonts/truetype you see the directory that you have copied but it is ``unreadable''.

It is necessary most of the times to copy directories and files to the root directory where TeX is installed. Ubuntu 8.04 had no problem.
