I'm sure that time ago I used a font named "Times" in OpenOffice, that was
rendered as Times-Roman in PDF documents (Acrobat reader), type 1 (perhaps
(Adobe Serif MM), using an internal fontset.

It is not "Times New Roman", of that I'm sure, that's a windows font and
it is embedded in pdfs, not what I want.

Somebody knows what package contains that font for SuSE 10.2?

I suspect the font was URW Nimbus Roman Number 9 L Regular, which is the
URW font includeded in ghostscript that emulates Times.

Times is included in Macs and is different from the Times New Roman that
comes with Windows, but I don't think it's ever been bundled as standard
with SuSE.

If you have a document with the font set to Times, OO will render it
with URW Nimbus Roman Number 9 L Regular. In any case, Nimbus Roman is
sufficiently close to Times that it's hard to tell the difference.
