I was playing around with abiword 0.7.9 yesterday. Most of my docs are
typeset in LaTeX, but I need something gui when working with graphics
or posters and the like.

The two things I need in abiword before I can sue it regularly: font
support and graphics support (jpeg and gif basically).

What's holding these back? X4 has ttf support? can't you just talk to
an x font server? and if png is in there, why not have other graphics
types? I'd love to help out with the project, but I'm just getting
started with glib/gtk+.

thanks all,
--dave
