Hey, people,
I really do not understand what is all aboout. Before misspelling I need
AbiWord to accept my language env and fonts encoding ISO-8859-2, letting
me to write and print!
I did so much work with fonts dir, fonts path, LANG env, ttftool and
ttfadmin.sh and much more without any good result.
Are there a real work around to this problem?
