Text becomes totally garbled and unreadable. Have searched the net and the few abiword forums I can find but nowhere does it say what nob is unturned on my freebsd installs. winxp and linux machines opens such documents ok. Anyone using this and know something wise ? OpenOffice would be an alternative, but I only have 4gb left of /usr so it won` t build. blessed be Kenneth, norway
