ATTN: AbiWord v2.6.4 Released!

AbiWord v2.6.4 Released

AbiWord 2.6 is a multi-platform word processor that combines
state-of-the-art usability, powerful features, and excellent
interoperability. Furthermore, it features a powerful framework for
supporting custom extensions. AbiWord v2.6.4 is the latest stable
release, which compared to v2.6.3 contains a good number of bugfixes.

This release includes the following changes (and more!):

* Fix a long-standing plug-in loading issue on Windows (this closes more
than 20 separate bug reports).
* Fixed inconsistent text rendering and layout with different zoom
levels on Unix platforms.
* The usual set of OpenDocument filter updates, most notably the added
ability to import MathML formulas.
* Include experimental collaboration support using the AbiCollab.net web
service (disabled by default as we expect some final protocol changes
are needed; feel free to play with it though!).
* Add the ability to export specific pages and page ranges on the
command line using the PostScript and PDF exporters on Linux.

    Example: abiword <file> --to=pdf --exp-props="pages:1-5,7-9"
