Yeah, you can't run AbiWord across a remote X display unless you copy
the fonts to the remote server.  This is all documented in the
pkg-message for AbiWord.  It should have been displayed right after you
installed it.  In case you missed it, it's
/usr/ports/editors/AbiWord/pkg-message.

If you've already done this, then I'm not sure why it doesn't work. 
Admittedly, I don't run AbiWord on remote X displays.
