Re: [libreoffice-users] Missing font from font list

I opened the font files with font viewer and they all list as already installed. And they show up 
in LO's font listing, but whenever I try to use one I just get a blank--the insert cursor 
disappears and no text. But if I change to, say, Arial, then the text reappears.

So the fonts are installed or sort of half-installed, and LO recognizes them to the extent of 
listing them, but refuses to use them.
