Abiword font problem

[Joel Hammer]

There is well known font bug in abiword. I read the FAQ and added the
abiword font directory to my XF86Config-4. There are no error messages
when X starts up and it lists that font directory in its fonts path. But,
abiword complains at startup about the font path and then complains when
I try to load certain fonts, then it crashes. So, the question is, is anyone
successfully using abiword version 1.02  and if so, how did you get around the
font problem? 


Thanks,
Joel
