Yes, but in an older version and printing messed up big time. Spont seg fault and abiword death. I haven't tried since pre 1.0 though so maybe it is sorted out.

Do a search for truetype and there is a thread called 'How to get truetype fonts to work in mozilla and xterm' by dpowers. Second page I added a note about my addition and limited success with abi.

Hey, let us know if this is working now. Abiword is great, but needs nice fonts and printing to justify install.
