Re: Print Command Crashes Abiword

HI Ray,
         Does abiword crash on a particular document when printing? Or
does it always crash for every document?

If the latter it sounds like your distro has a broken gnome-print package.

You could try building your own version of abiword-2.7.10, which
although technically "unstable" has many more bug-fixes and feature
than 2.6.8 along with a far better print system.

I hope we can get abiword-2.8 released within a week though.

Cheers

Martin
