Enable "Show preview of fonts" in Tools->Options->LibreOffice->View. It is enabled by default, by the way, which means that you have switched it off.
Comment 4 Adolfo Jayme Barrientos 2014-07-10 20:26:16 UTC 
I don’t think the OP switched the preview option off, as Arial does show a preview in the list, but not the others.

I’ve seen this issue as well, but only under Windows XP (Vista, 7 and 8 are not affected). Is it worth to fix it now that XP is unsupported?

Reporter means real-time document preview, not just the font list.
Comment 6 Joel Madero 2014-08-04 15:54:36 UTC 
REOPENED is reserved for a bug that:

1. a developer has marked as FIXED;
2. a developer is assigned to the bug that is marked as FIXED;

In this case the enhancement request was never independently confirmed so correct status is UNCONFIRMED. Thanks!

Hi, as a workaround, you can select part of your text and open the character dialog (Format > Character), a preview of the text will be displayed when you select the font. Set as New - Sophie
