    A quote I saved from #abiword:

    <mhatta> would you check whether your /etc/fonts/fonts.conf contains
    "<dir>/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts</dir>"?
    <hub> it does
    <mhatta> hmm
    <mhatta> on my box, abiword can't find fonts if fonts.conf has that lin

    Hope this helps. If not, then I'm clueless as usual
