Resumen:
We study various aspects of orientifold projections of type IIB closed string  theory on Gepner points in different dimensions. The open string sector is introduced, in the usual  constructive way, in order to cancel RR charges carried by orientifold planes. Moddings by cyclic permutations of the internal N = 2 superconformal blocks as well as by discrete phase symmetries are implemented. Reduction in the number of generations, breaking or enhancements of gauge symmetries and topology changes are shown to be induced by such moddings.
