In short... no. Staroffice is a monolithic application that only supports
certain Postscript fonts. I know there are tools out there that can convert
TrueType (as used in Windows) to Postscript fonts -- perhaps you should do a
search for those. Otherwise you should use an alternative, like Abiword,
Kword or OpenOffice (the successor to StarOffice).
