    I've installed abiword-gnome-1.0.2 on RedHat7.3 with LPR print_sys, charcode
    iso-8859-2, with abiwor-fonts installed and other plug-ins.

    There are not noticeable errors at abiword startup, document writing or
    editing. But --- I cannot print a document. Regardless of what type of font
    I use at document writing, eg. Times New Roman or Arial, or any other font
    as NORMAL, on a paper print I allways receive some sort of ITALICS.

    The second problem is, that printed text do not keep charset iso-8859-2, in
    place of diacritics I receive some rectangles or circles. On the screen
    everything is OK.

    So it is probably true to say, that abiword, from one side a famous
    achievement of the opensource world, from the other side it is still a baby
    in a delivery with only one leg on our side of the life. But, be patient.
