Sometimes font problems are resolved by running spadmin.  Shut down OOo 
(and any quickstarter that Debian may have installed).  Go to the 
system installation directory (wherever you put it) in a root terminal 
window and run "./spadmin".  Click on the fonts button, navigate to 
your fonts directory, click on "Select All" and "OK".  If you're sure, 
choose to ignore overwrites.  When done "Close" and "Close" and then 
start OOo again.  See if that helps.
