OO.o: No OpenType, yet
I spent two hours only to find that OpenOffice.org (OO.o) does not support OpenType fontfaces yet. That is a shame, as OpenType have become a standard in both Mac OS and Windows.
There are plans to support OpenType in OO.o 3.
The only way to use OpenType in the current stable OO.o release (2.4) is… Well, not to. One can strip off the OpenType wrapper and use TrueType instead.
