Re: [libreoffice-users] Font Issues Mac OS X

     You are using 3.5.6. Since that time, 3.5.7 was issued to fix a 
bug but I don't remember why right now. 3.5.7 might not have that 
problem. Also the newest release is 3.6.3 with 3.6.4 coming soon. 3.6.3 
might also not have this problem.
     I agree that this can be frustrating. I do seem to remember of 
your problem with help some time in the past, but I don't remember what 
the problem was. I'm not even sure how to even search for it on the 
Internet. Sorry.
