    Additionally, I was just now able to insert these files into a document
    with OpenOffice. I'm sure the problem is one with how I installed
    abiword; but there is no way for me to know what it might be. I
    installed the abiword rpm's I downloaded from the web site; I remember I
    had to install with -nodeps because it kept complaining that I didn't
    have all the dependencies, even after I went through the dependencies
    one by one and verified they were there.

    Maybe abiword just isn't compatible with Mandrake?
