OpenOffice.org (and maybe even AbiWord, I haven't tried that) 
uses Subtitution Table (Tools/Options/OpenOffice.org/Fonts), so 
you can say that Times New Roman will be substituted by 
Liberation Serif, Arial by Liberation Sans Serif, Courier New by 
LIbertaion whateveristhename.

And of course as system default fonts use something else (I 
actually like Fedora default Deja fonts).

Best,
