Hi Sandra

I hade a problem with all Oracle Java tool failing to load on the same version and OLE 7.4 it turned out to be a font problem. Try creating a file in /etc/fonts/local.conf with the following contents:

<?xml version='1.0'?>
<!DOCTYPE fontconfig SYSTEM 'fonts.dtd'>
<fontconfig>
<alias>
<family>serif</family>
<prefer><family>Utopia</family></prefer>
</alias>
<alias>
<family>sans-serif</family>
<prefer><family>Utopia</family></prefer>
</alias>
<alias>
<family>monospace</family>
<prefer><family>Utopia</family></prefer>
</alias>
<alias>
<family>dialog</family>
<prefer><family>Utopia</family></prefer>
</alias>

<family>dialoginput</family>
<prefer><family>Utopia</family></prefer>

</fontconfig>
