fonts in Star Office

[user list <debian-user@icantbelieveimdoingthis.com>]

I have been reading the threads on fonts on this list. My problem seems 
similar, yet different. Star Office doesn't find many of the standard fonts,
including 

coates/home/edwardsa>Failed to load font "-adobe-helvetica-bold-r-normal--19-0-0-0-p-*-iso8859-1"
Please verify your fontpath settings
	(See "man xset" for details or ask your system administrator)


I'm neither a fonts genius nor a fonts moron but here is where I think things
stand. 

I'm running XF86 4.2.0 compiled from source. my "Files section of the 
XF86Config-4 file is

Section "Files"
        RgbPath      "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/rgb"
        ModulePath   "/usr/X11R6/lib/modules"
        FontPath     "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/"
        FontPath     "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi/:unscaled"
        FontPath     "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi/:unscaled"
        FontPath     "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1/"
        FontPath     "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Speedo/"
        FontPath     "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/CID/"
        FontPath     "/var/lib/defoma/x-ttcidfont-conf.d/dirs/TrueType"
        FontPath     "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi/"
        FontPath     "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi/"
EndSection

I have checked the file /var/log/XFree86.0.log and I find 

(**) FontPath set to "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/,/usr/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi/:unscaled,/usr/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi/:unscaled,/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1/,/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Speedo/,/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/CID/,/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi/,/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi/"

So that the font path seems correct

I find the helvetica font under the usual /X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1 in the fonts.alias file. So, I'm officially mystified.
