What OS are you using?  Windows, Linux, Mac OSX?  It looks like Windows, 
but please state it.

MTSF fonts?  What fonts names are they?  Do you want to add those fonts 
for LibreO only
of your want to have them system wide?

Windows has/had a Font section in its "Control Panel".  I add fonts that 
way and I make sure
I check the "copy fonts" section so the font will be copied to the Fonts 
folder.

When I go from one computer to another, I copy my Fonts folder [TTF and 
OTF fonts only]
and save it on a thumb drive, or something.  Then I use the Font options 
on the new
computer to install all the fonts that I have on the thumb drive that 
are not on the new computer.
Currently I have 330 fonts in my Ubuntu 10.10.  Many are pre-installed 
by Ubuntu and things
can go weird if I delete them.  The rest are my standard fonts, 
including Comic Sans MS.
