None of these methods have significant advantages over the others. Alternatively, you can run spadmin, a utility that runs outside of proper and includes the installation of fonts on a printer-by-printer basis. I haven't tried it on the AA1, however, because it only supports network and USB printers, so it's a pain to install a dummy one.Īs RokcDoctor says, installing a TrueType Helvetica may get around the problem, because TrueType does not distinguish between print-quality and screen-quality fonts in the way that the standard unix Type-1 fonts do. User community support forum for Apache OpenOffice, LibreOffice and all the derivatives. I am a brand new user of Linux Mint 20, and Linux in general. The brute force method is to copy font files into the /user/fonts directory for your installation. On desktop Linux systems, a popular work-around for this problem is to install a dummy PostScript printer, because PS printers invariably have these fonts and OO knows that. The AA1 has the standard Adobe Helvetica, Times, etc., installed (in Adope Type-1 format), but OpenOffice does not seem to offer them, presumably because it does not think that they are printer-ready (don't know why - since there are. This is getting to be very frustrating, and I was wondering if anyone had any answers for me Or ideas I am running: KDE 3.3.1 Xorg 6.7.
I have fonts working on Xorg 6.7.0 but OpenOffice 1.1.3 does not see any of them. So OO is trying to help you, by concealing fonts that it has no reason to think will be able to print properly. Hey all, I was wondering if someone could explain to me (or point me to an article on) fonts in a linux environment. My understanding is that OpenOffice hides fonts that it does not think are suitable for printing, even though they exist on the system in some format or other.
