Download the FontOOo latest version
FontOOo is an OpenOffice.org wizard simplifying the downloading and installation of selected, high-quality fonts available on the internet. License restrictions prevent these fonts from being directly shipped as part of OpenOffice.org but do allow end-user installation and use for no cost.
Based on previously selected font packages, FontOOo will connect on mirrors to let you choose the fonts you want to download and install.
FontOOo only installs fonts for OpenOffice.org and doesn't perform any OS level font installation.
FontOOo is from now on integrated into OpenOffice.org. It has been found stable on many systems but some work perharps still may be done...
You'll find here all the necessary stuff to use it.
Fell free to contact me if you encounter any problem.
