Description
Arial Narrow MT is installed on Solaris but not mapped to Arial Narrow via system font config mechanism. As a result presnetations like our which use that font are broken when using them on such systems. See attached screenshots.

Technical details you can get from Herbert Duerr. He is the StarOffice font expert in our development team. He is on cc of this CR, too.
Since the point of having fontconfig in the system is, that the system integrator knows best what fonts are available and how they look, the /etc/fonts/fonts.conf file should be extended to cover available fonts.
*** Test Case ***
Run:   fc-match "Arial Narrow"
It should return:
ArialNarrow.ttf: "Arial Narrow MT" "Regular"
