Still present in Hardy, version 2.3.1.3-ubuntu3.

I've found the file responsible for the default font in OO.o. It's
Writer.xcu from the package openoffice.org-common, installed to
/usr/lib/openoffice/share/registry/data/org/openoffice/Office/Writer.xcu.

There's another file, psprint.conf, from the same package, installed to
/etc/openoffice/psprint.conf, which promotes some font substitutions for
common fonts. Since it used Microsoft fonts, I replaced them with our
standard fonts, but I'd like somebody to check that, I don't understand
when and if it's really used. Anybody knows?

So here are two patches for each file, based on latest hardy version.
They replace "Time" by "Nimbus Roman No9 L", "Helvetica" by "FreeSans"
(headings), and additionnally (only for substitution) "Courier" by
"Nimbus Mono L". This is actually what we used before Feisty, so there
shouldn't be any problem with that. Maybe when the Penguin Liberation
fonts will be available, we'll be able to look further into fonts
substitutions, but for now this is just what we need and these fonts are
good.

Could anyone apply these patches? Any comments?
