The following reply was made to PR ports/134732; it has been noted by GNATS. From: "Joseph S. Atkinson" <jsa.bsd@gmail.com> To: Koop Mast <kwm@FreeBSD.org>, FreeBSD Bug Followup <bug-followup@FreeBSD.org> Cc: Joe Marcus Clarke <marcus@FreeBSD.org> Subject: Re: ports/134732: editors/abiword shows spacing corruption Date: Tue, 19 May 2009 22:30:59 -0400 I've solved this... kinda... The issue is that the fonts it wants do not exist and... can't be shipped with it either. The default fonts are MS fonts found in x11-fonts/webfonts. The solution, seemingly, would thus be to change the default font in abiword to something more F/OSS friendly... However, documents written in the MS fonts will still cause this garbage to render out. This should really be falling back to a sane font proper though. Currently, the only real fix is to install webfonts.help
