Hello,
I have solved the problem with printing ISO-8859-2 fonts. Just as
a reminder: the problem was that although it is moderately easy for an
experienced user to display ISO-8859-2 characters by copying apropriate
fonts into abiword font directory, they do not appear on the postscript
output. No idea how it exactly works, I don't know anything about
Unicode/abiword internals, I just found out by trial and error that adding
the following line to your .AbiSuite/AbiWord.profile file in the section
<"scheme name="_custom_"> results in a correct output:
RemapGlyphsMasterSwitch="0"
No idea what it does and whether it is accessible from GUI. It just works.
As for exporting RTFs to CE Word, I use a simple bash script, which does the
job. I know nothing, I understand nothing, it was trial and error again,
but maybe someone finds it useful. I would be very happy if anybody
explained these matters to me or performed at least a standard targetted
RTFM redirection.
Regards,
j.
