OS: OpenSUSE 11.4
Desktop Environment: KDE
When I run
fc-list
my Adobe fonts are displayed. If I do
fc-list | grep "Adobe"
my fonts are found again. If I look for them in /usr/share/texmf/fonts, they are not missing.
But when I scroll through LibreOffice I don’t see any font of the Adobe family. I did
#fc-cache -fv
just to be sure (again) they are cached, but to no avail.
Why is that so?
I have a partial solution to this (can use the fonts with XeTex, but I still don’t know why LibreOffice does not display them). I’ve asked on a specialized site, and they gave me an answer which worked for me.
First,
sudo zypper lcdf-typetools
and then
otfinfo -a /path/to/filename
You use the name prompted, NOT the one listed in with “fc-list”, as there might be some issues of incompatibility when using the package “fontspec”.
Most of the Texlive fonts are not recognised by LibreOffice apart from the Opentype fonts in /usr/share/texmf/fonts/opentype/public. LibreOffice normally looks for its fonts in /usr/share/fonts or /usr/share/local/fonts. I am not quite sure why it picks up the Texlive Opentype fonts.
