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.
