Re: [libreoffice-users] Font problem

There is a difference between "putting" them in the folder and 
"installing" them.  You click on the fonts and a window opens up and 
then click on the "install" button.  That places the font in the ".font" 
folder and places references to it to all the other places needed for it 
to work properly.

Looking at those font names from the link you gave, I do have many of 
those fonts.
