Description Rainer 2018-03-28 11:26:01 UTC
Description:
In Windows 10 64bit my Adobe Postscriptfonts are no longer visible and usable and are described as 'missing' in existing documents. 
Windows shows the fonts correctly, Photoshop can use them without a problem. Other softwares have the same problem. 


Steps to Reproduce:
1.Create a new document
2.Try to choose the font
3. Or load a document using the font


Actual Results:  
1.Create a new document
2.Try to choose the font
3.It is not there
4. Or load a document using the font
5. The Font name shows up in italic and the text 'the chosen font is not available and will be substituted'

Expected Results:
The Font is not usable
In an existing document the Font name shows up in italic and the text 'the chosen font is not available and will be substituted'


Reproducible: Always

Yes, current LibreOffice cannot use Type-1 fonts, see release notes https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/ReleaseNotes/5.3#General
You need to convert or wrap your fonts. Please use forum or mailing list, in case you need help for that.
