I just tried Dave's method, and it worked flawlessly (LO 5.2.6.2 on Mac
OSX).

Hi.
Trying to imitate a layout from MS word (words around a circle) in
writer.

I can enter the words, get the shape, colour, etc. but in writer can't
change the font.
If I do the same in draw the properties side bar has Character where I
can change the font.
In writer the sidebar does not have Character.
LO 5.1.4.2
Am I missing something, help appreciated.
Steve

Hi Steve,

Double click on the Fontworks object to access the underlying text.
Select/highlight (eg. Shift + Home keys) the displayed text and choose
the required font from the style drop-down or that sidebar thing.
Click  outside of the Fontworks object to finish.
Note: Fontworks is converting normal fonts into vector shapes, so some
results may not always be pleasing.

Hope this helps.

Dave

Thanks Dave, but that didn't work. The highlighted text changes (and stays
changed) but the changes don't go show in the fontwork text. LO 5.1 and
5.2, OSX, Win and Linux.
