Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: openoffice.org2

Ubuntu Gutsy, 
German localization, 
OpenOffice2 from the repos, German language files,
msttcorefonts from the repos.
Several school fonts installed.

I. Special characters issue

After installing msttcorefonts correctly, the Fonts are listed in the
Dropdownmenu oft OpenOffice, they can be selected etc.

The problem is, that several character, which are often used in German (ä,ü.ö) 
are not displayed correctly, as you may see on the screenshot in this post:
http://de.openoffice.info/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=15018

Curiously, this problem occurs not every time you open a document (round about 
every second time). It affects older documents (generated on other machines) as 
well as new documents.
You can see the issue in every openoffice program, as Writer, Calc, Impress.

Other text processors (abiWord) und programs (like scribus, ...) are not
affected.

The problem is reproducable. I even reinstalled Ubuntu and moved my
/home to a backupplace, to start from scratch. Same issue.


After a while, there was a second problem:

As you may see on the screenshots in this posting
http://de.openoffice.info/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=14631

My (additionally installed) school fonts were dissappearing from
OpenOffice, from the menu as well as from the documents.

Other programs show them correctly.

I'll be glad to provide extra information, if necessary. Just let me
know.
