    not sure about that one, hopefully someone else will answer

    try
    http://abiword.pchasm.org/builds/release/win32/2.0.1/official/personal/AbiWord_GIE_Plugins.exe
    for the *.sxw and *.sdw plugins

    They aren't listed in the normal downloads section, and because
    of the glib/gsf dependency I did not add them to the standard
    importer/exporter installer. I haven't had a chance to
    update the plugins yet for the 2.0.2 release, but the 2.0.1
    should work and you can always try the nightly built ones as
    well (url subject to change) --
