Thank you Joaquin :-) I just tested this on my windows with MS Office/ linux laptop. I copied every font on on my windows partition to my .fonts file. They all work and AbiWord starts up just as fast as usual. With this in place I think we should make RH 8 binaries for 1.1.3. We now blow Open Office out of the water in font support :-) Cheers!
