    Did you use the link I gave you on chat? If not i can give you the link again. You may have to add more languages through control panel before you can see the font.

    ok. here is the link. MyFonts Support. i got it to work, but i did the steps for adding the languages first and then opened open office and it showed it there.

    to download the font i went to http://www.1001fonts.com/font_details.html?font_id=1166 and downloaded the top one for windows.

    Download font. Unzip it if it's in a zip file with WinRar. Extract to the font folder under C:\Windows\Fonts

    Or if it's not zipped then just drag the downloaded file there it will install.

    You're welcome. ^ What rynoman said is easiest way to put it in folder. I extracted mine to a new folder with the font name where i downloaded it to and went to fonts and chose to add it.
