Well I got it to display TrueType fonts, which it didn't before and I had
racked my brains trying to do. Here's what I did:
1. Tools|Preferences and set the ruler units to centimeters.
2. Exit AbiWord.
3. Edit the profile file in kwrite. Find the centimeters.
4. Make a copy of the font path in the section with the centimeters, and add
the TrueType font directory.
5. Save and exit.
6. Restart AbiWord. The font list now includes all my TrueType fonts.
Too bad it crashes trying to print them :(
