Anyone seen this??-

I'm reasonably sure I've got the
latest abiword2,gtk2.dsls, and release
0.9.1.
I know libfreetype is in there.
When I try to open anything, debug/console
gives Gdk warning that it cannot convert utf8
to iso-8859-1 and nothing shows up in abiword.
MS Docs display question marks.
Siag works.Text editors work.

Even with a "standard",non-remastered live cd
of 0.9.1, (loading dsls from hard drive) this happens.
I know the above are fonts but thats about where I
pull up and park.

Any pointers much appreciated!

This is the fun of an X.X.0 release! Lots of bugfixes!

I haven't had the problems you guys are describing, especially since I'm ising the 1.X version of Xchat and K3B for cd jobs. But the factored Abiword has been working fine for me, as has OpenOffice.
