A quick search gave me these: http://packages.debian.org/testing/x11/xfonts-bolkhov-cp1251-75dpi.html http://www.is-vn.bg/hamster/ter-x392.tgz Any cp1251 font will be ok, the problem is that I can't use any of them. > For the "installation of fonts is hard" part, you can > use a xft powered build. You will need the latest > fontconfig/Xft from fontconfig.org (rh8 already has them). Well, I see Xft in some way a part of XFree86.. But no, I don't have fontconfig. Is this some RH-specific tool, like sndconfig, for instance was in the past? I believe the management of the font access in Debian is done (at the end..) via Defoma (DEbian FOnt MAnager), which, like I said, doesn't allow the registration of cp1251 font for abiword (but that may be defoma-specific issue anyway;) I'm not complaining about the "hard instalation of fonts", I mean that not just me, but all the people I know in the Linux society here are saying it's.. impossible :(( I make the fonts visible for Abi (in it's own directory, the way described in the docs, and to the X also, by adding the folders in the XF86Config-4. No result. The funny part is, like I said, that when I change the encoding of the strings file to Latin-1, the cyrillic appears (still only in the menus)... > If it doesn't work that way, send a bug report to bugzilla. I'll do that soon, just wondered if this is really a bug in Abi, since users of RH managed to get cp1251 in AbiWord v.0.7... But noone said so for v.>=1.0 > Joaquin Cuenca Abela -- Iassen Pramatarov aka Turin
