Is this list of packages useful without font packages? The problem is
most likely to be a font issue in that some fonts don't support smart
quotes.
If it helps, here is the list of packages I currently have installed
containing the word 'font' (I rarely see this problem in OpenOffice
myself):
dfontmgr freefont gfontview gsfonts gsfonts-other gsfonts-x11 gtkfontsel
libming-fonts-openoffice msttcorefonts psfontmgr ttf-freefont
x-ttcidfont-conf xfont-nexus xfonts-100dpi xfonts-75dpi xfonts-abi
xfonts-artwiz xfonts-base xfonts-intl-european xfonts-intl-phonetic
xfonts-jmk xfonts-pex xfonts-scalable xfonts-scalable-nonfree
xfonts-terminus
No doubt this is overkill, and you would probably want some more
European character set fonts in there, but I hope that list is useful.
Regards,
Andrew.
