[Sheflug] Abiword

[Richard <nospam [at] sheflug.co.uk>]

Dear all

I've finally been able to get the Abiword download page to let me have
the Abiword 0.7.10 rpm.

http://www.abisource.com/dl_linux_intel

and very nice it is too :-)  

The early versions didn't really do much for me so I didn't bother
with them too much.  Looks as though it'll work nicely on a 100MHz
laptop.  There are two things I'd like to ask, if anyone can answer ??

* The site claims that Abiword can save in MS Word 97 format.  How do
I do that ?  If I do   "save as"  it comes up with "automatically
detected "  is this the right one ?

* How about adding more fonts ?  Do I need to get the senior
programmer at the Bell labs to do this for me ? 

Thanks
