Correct, because OpenOffice couldn't care less about your X fonts, and uses fontconfig, which requires a local font repository (I presume you could mount one via NFS... that would get interesting). XFS will work fine for sharing X fonts to applications that don't support fontconfig. I imagine that any local Xft1-using applications will happily use it as well. It's the Xft2 applications you're going to have a problem with. -- Marc Wilson | "Everyone is entitled to an *informed* opinion."
