Mine worked fine without touching spadmin (RH7.3). I just ran
spadmin to see what it did. It only had three fontsets available - a
couple of Bitstreams and a Lucindasans. When I run OO itself I have
a huge set available including my Arialuni, MS Mincho, MSGothic, etc. It
seems to pick upp all the TTFs I have configured into X.

(The installation details for the fonts are on
