That happened to me, on all oo applications. Turned out to be an issue
involving defoma and a recent msttcorefonts upgrade, solved by deleting
the /usr/lib/X11/fonts/TrueType directory (since its contents have moved
inside a defoma tree somewhere), and checking a few config files.
Quick try: rename said directory, restart X and check oo before doing
any deleting.
If still stumped, search the debian list archives (recent) for details.
