I suspect it has something to do with how you're running AbiWord. As the following sequence will show, abiword isn't the name of the actual binary program: beta:~> file `which abiword` /usr/bin/abiword: symbolic link to AbiWord beta:~> file `which AbiWord` /usr/bin/AbiWord: Bourne shell script text executable Among the items inside that wrapper script are options to define the font path. So you maybe you can just copy the one that came with the Debian package and hack that one to your heart's delight. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
