    Libre Office, is there a way to hide unwanted fonts?

    Hi everyone,

    I'm finding that scrolling through the hundreds of fonts in Libre Office interrupts my work flow. Is there any way to hide or remove the many that aren't useful? Eg. arabic/thai/malay etc which I'll never personally use. If I can narrow down the fonts to ones that are relevant it would save so much time !

    In terms of using unbuntu/kubuntu, I've been using them for years, but in terms of programming and using terminal, I'm still Incomputent

    Thank you for reading this far

    The fonts are what is installed by default in Ubuntu/Kubuntu, so you can use a package manager like Muon or Synaptic and search for font packages, and filter by 'installed' to see what you want to remove. It should be pretty easy to see which ones are for other languages.
    Or go into system settings, and remove them manually from there, tedious for sure.
