Hi,

On a test VM, I have managed to find the flag and set it.

Tools -> Options -> (LibreOffice) Advanced -> Open Expert Configuration
(button).

When dialog appears. Insert and search for 'TextLayoutEngine'. Double click on
'VCL' and change from 'new' to 'old' and 'OK' button your way back to writer.
Close writer and restart and you will have the font requested back for use.

Regards

Phil
