Hi all

another problems for OO. The UI Font is so ugly that I want to change it.
I've tried every solutions I can find in google, but nothing works!

- Check/Uncheck using system font
- Apply replacement table for the font "Andale Sans UI", or "Andale Mono".
- Tried to replace the other fonts.
- Remove old .openoffice.org2 and create a new one.

However, nothing changes for the UI Font.

Do you guys have any suggestions to fix this? ( lenny/sid, openoffice 1:2.0.4-3, kernel 2.6.24)

You could try to set Scaling to 80% in menu
Tools/Options/OpenOffice.org/View

On my system (etch/kde) OpenOffice.org looks like any other app.

Greetings, Manon.

Thanks. But I tried and it doesn't work at all.
The problem is the font can not be changed at all. I've been trying every solutions I can find on internet, but always failed.

If there's no solution for this, I'm going to use koffice or others instead. I can't stand the ugly UI fonts in openoffice.
