Shouldn't you be addressing this to abiword developers? FWIW, I am not seeing half-eaten letters on printouts of a simple test (four lines of "Test " repeated without newlines) on 0.9.0-0.1 in unstable, using the default font and size (Times New Roman, 12 pt). Those are the defaults it pops up with when I use it, at least. I also do not see bug reports filed against the abiword package referencing this. I haven't found anything in Abiword's bug tracker... a few things which might describe your problems, but none I can reproduce. These are all things you could have done which may have gotten more useful results than your posts to debian-user. You could also have posted more details than you did in any of your posts: was the problem just on imported docs? Could you replicate it by entering text from a blank document? Was it all fonts and font sizes, or just some? If it's just imported documents, is it a problem with line spacing or something (a problem I've seen on imported docs in many word processors)? -- Alan Shutko <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> - In a variety of flavors!
