I've just come across this too. A document created in AW in landscape
orientation and saved in RTF came up in portrait in other apps.
Reformating the document in Word in landscape, I opened it again in AW
where it came up in portrait again. Then changing page size in the AW
page setup dialog and applying the change produces an IPF in MSVCRT.DLL.
Completely reproduceable.
This is with Abiword 0.7.14-2 on Windows 98. I know a lot of work has
gone into import and export filters since the last release and that
current CVS would probably show different behaviour.
