You might want to check something else -- if you just open text edit
and try to select
symbol font, when you type you will get something else (I think
whatever font
was previously selected). There is something funny about what Apple has
done with Symbol font....

I just did an install of Open Office and immediately checked. 1.0.3
does seem to have a problem with the Symbol.ttf file. In fact there
are several fonts that have no names (apparently). I scrolled down to
where I thought Symbol might be. There was a row if six empty boxes.
Font names above and below. When I moved down below Symbol so that it
disappears. When I scroll back up the name appears. If I select it
(i.e., in the document, I select all then set the font. I get a few
characters which I suspect are not available in Symbol
Since I am a total newbie at X11 and OO, I am glad that I read your
post before I did much with it.

Anyone out there have a successful installation of OpenOffice 1.0.3?
I tried
today, and find that I do not have the Symbol font. I followed the
recommended
options of the installer.
