It is possible that OO.o is not reading the same registry for fonts as
KDE uses. KDE uses font-config, which reads from the fonts.dir in each
of your font directories. I believe OO.o uses the fonts.scale file,
which is not always properly made when you install using KDE's font
installer.
Check your TTF font directory and see if fonts.dir and fonts.scale are
identical. If not, copy fonts.dir to fonts.scale.
