Font list in openoffice.org


Hi,

I'm using,

Slackware 10.1
Openoffice.org 2.0

My Kcontrol and charmap are listing a lot of fonts but very few fonts are available in swriter.

How do I add the remaining fonts to openoffice??

Run "./spadmin" from your Openoffice installation directory, select a directory containing the fonts you want to add click "Select All" and you're done.

Thanx bathory your suggestion worked and everything is fine.

Is there any site which provides all the fonts found in MS Wrod XP for Openoffice.org??

Also, some of the fonts like "Arial" are not italicized even after applying the Italic format. Why is this so? Can someone help me out?
