Thanks for the tip. I've found a dir on the old SuSE drive '/usr/share/fonts'

I copied its contents with a cp -R so I got all the dir's into my local FC6 
drive into /usr/share/fonts.

However when I start openoffice I dont see the new fonts.  Any thoughts? Did I 
miss a step?

Thanks in advance...
