This bug is already three years old. The milestone is targeted for later. The
question that arises here is: later than what? Later than version 3.0?

I don't know whether this is the most important/critical issue that OOo has. But
not being able to use OpenType fonts (althought it seems that they will be
displayed in OOo 3.0) makes OOo less usable.

Just in case it might help, I think that considering cairo for efficient PDF
generation would be interesting and helpful. But I wonder whether cairo could
generate hybrid PDF files.

Thanks, Pablo.
