im a windows user and ive done a lot of testing of abiword for windows,
but i either dont have a printer or simply never print out stuff
depending where i am.
(i have no intention of ditching windows completely, ill be dual booting
windows and linux for years to come and ill probably eventually put in
another partition with Dos to play some of my old games, but that is
beside the point).
oh wait, so you can actually print, just not using the button.
hmm thats weird.
does it cause a crash?
please submit a bug report to Bugzilla, if its a crasher and you can
lose data then its really important.
thanks
