Fonts for OOo2

Hi forum

I used to use MS Publisher and Office 97, and the one thing I miss in Linux is the fonts. Can I install more fonts in OOo2?

Thanks

You should be able to install them in /usr/share/fonts for system-wide use, in /home/user_name/.fonts for per user use and in ~/openoffice.org/share/fonts for just OpenOffice use.

As far as I'm aware it just takes the font's out of your PCs font's folder, so just try places such as http://www.dafont.com for more.
