Which fonts are you using?
Good question. In the meantime I have changed it to Gothic and now it works perfectly. I have only the fonts that come with SuSE 7.2, and I used the one that OpenOffice offered as default, but I can't recall which one that was.
I recommend to install the free Japanese Kochi TrueType fonts:
ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/people/mfabian/8.0-noarch/ttf-kochi-gothic-0.2.20020727-3.rpm
ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/people/mfabian/8.0-noarch/ttf-kochi-mincho-0.2.20020727-3.rpm
These fonts will work also on your SuSE 7.2 system.
I am not absolutely sure which fonts you are using now, but I guess
you have xtt-fonts.rpm rpm installed and the "Gothic" font which
you select in OpenOffice is wadalab-gothic.ttf from the xtt-fonts.rpm.
The Kochi fonts look more beautiful than the xtt-fonts and are less
buggy. They also have a Unicode charmap, whereas the xtt-fonts only
have a SJIS charmap.
Some applications can't deal well with TrueType fonts which don't have
a Unicode charmap. For example antialiasing in KDE will not work with
the xtt-fonts for that reason.
