I am using LibreOffice 3.6 on Bodhi Linux 2.0.1 (a ubuntu 12.04 derivative). All other applications on the system list and properly display/render my Type 1 fonts. LibreOffice does not display them in the dropdown list. Fonts are installed in /usr/share/fonts/Type1. Extensions (.pfb and .pfm) are all lower case.

How can I fix this?

@jmadero.dev, you're a Bodhi user, right? Any repro with Type1 fonts?

I have a quick fix. First, create a .fonts folder in your home directory. Then install the "gnome-font-viewer" in Synaptic, double click on the font you want to install, then click install. Voila! You should have it automagically appear in Libre Office.
