Open Office 2.0 downloaded great!

BUT..... Arial font (as well as a few others that I use) - are not installed.... and therefore - the output isn't acceptable.

PowerPoint files with images work fine (and works much faster than OOffice 2.0 in XP on the same machine...

I have about 400+ PPT files to use ---- so the next question is - how to install fonts...

TIA

Hey,
I installed DSL on my older Compaq Deskpro (Celeron) and its running nice...
But missing the new Open Office 2 Version.
I tried out the below mentioned link

http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub....pps

but could not find the OO 2 download (maybe not anymore???...)

1. How I can get the OO2 for DSL LINUX?
2. How I install and run it?

My RAM=64
HD=6,2 GB
hda1=1,5 GB
hda2=swap 200 MB (but I see now that its not in use from DSL... it is necessary/helpful any swap partition for DSL)?
hda3=4,5 GB (plan to install DOS games on... better to use FREEDOS or DOS EMULATOR under DSL?)

I hope you can help me soon...

Greetings,
Vincent

Hi!

@TravMan1963: OpenOffice/File/Assistant/Download Fonts from the Internet (or someting like that; my OOo speaks german).

@Vincent:
"1. How I can get the OO2 for DSL LINUX?"
try another server, they are listed in the main page of damnsmalllinux.org; choose UCI applications, then openoffice2.0 and download (near 109 MB).

2. How I install and run it?
in DSL: open EmelFM, then select the UCI application of OOo and click on mydsl in EmelFM, icons will be placed on the desktop; click on the icons in order to use a program.

3. Config.: my experience is not so good with low-ram computers and OpenOffice 2.0. It takes a very long time in order to open a document. Last test with: RAM= 110, HD=256 MB, SWAP=1Go on an external usb hdd; OpenOffice opens a document within 10 min.

I hope this helps
yours
