Hi folks,

I'm running a recently installed up to date Sid distribution.  I am
having a problem where text in OpenOffice Writer that is marked as bold
is still showing up as plain text.  Can anyone advise how I might solve
this problem?

Hi,

I had exactly the same problem. I posted here but couldn't get much help here. Seems like not many people have this problem or not many use openoffice here.

Anyway, I discovered the problem was, IIRC, a missing package. What openoffice packages do you have installed? I have(on Sarge though, on Sarge too the problem was the same):
$> COLUMNS=150 dpkg -l openoff* | grep ^ii
ii openoffice.org 1.1.2dfsg1-1 high-quality office productivity suite ii openoffice.org-bin 1.1.2dfsg1-1 OpenOffice.org office suite binary files ii openoffice.org-debian-files 1.1.2-5+1 Debian specific parts of OpenOffice.org ii openoffice.org-help-en 1.1+20030814-3 OpenOffice.org office suite help (English) ii openoffice.org-l10n-en 1.1.2dfsg1-1 English (US) language package for OpenOffice.org ii openoffice.org-thesaurus-en-us 1.1.2dfsg1-1 English (US) Thesaurus for OpenOffice.org

Let me know if this helps, else I will try to dig further.
