[arch-general] OpenOffice.org on Acer Aspire One

Hello. I'm trying to use OpenOffice.org on my Acer Aspire One. For some peculiar reason, all the characters in the menu and title bar etc. and everything I type to the document are displayed as "squares" instead of regular characters. Sourcing /etc/profile.d/openoffice.sh does nothing. Installing a JRE didn't do anything either. Other applications such as Firefox work fine. Any ideas?
