You might try visiting the OpenOffice.org MacOS X Testing forum at
http://www.ooodocs.org/modules.php?name=Forums&file=viewforum&f=20 where
you will find several threads on how to use MacOS X fonts with OOo.
FWIW OOo does not yet support MacOS X fonts 'directly', although Dan is very
close to cracking this nut. But you can easily convert most MacOS X fonts
via fondu and install them for use in OOo. Full instructions are available
in this thread
