OpenOffice does its own font rendering (old legacy crap, don't ask),
so it wouldn't surprise me for TrueType fonts to not always render
properly.  (It may also be trying to substitute a non-TrueType font,
or one of many other reasons...)  Your best bet is to try to avoid
TrueType fonts.

I've had problems where TrueType fonts display fine on-screen, but
then OpenOffice produces Postscript that none of my printers grok.
Fun stuff...
