+Missing fonts on upgrade to 1.1.0
+---------------------------------
+As part of the integration of Ximian's work, openoffice now uses fontconfig to
+determine the installed fonts on your system. Fonts that were installed using
+the 'spadmin' tool in a non-standard directory are no longer supported. You
+should move those fonts to a directory that fontconfig knows about, such as
+~/.fonts or /usr/share/fonts. The same applies if you made use of special
+paths with SAL_FONTPATH_PRIVATE.
-Too little fonts in KDE
------------------------
-If your fonts are tiny in KDE, you can fix this with rescaling OpenOffice.org
-through the Settings (Tools -> Options -> View -> Scale).
-Increase it to 110 - 130 %
