I have a similar problem with AbiWord for Windows: all national (Polish in my case) characters look fine when on screen, but disappear in printing (except Arial CE). I use Windows 95 PL, printer HP 600. Other word editors (MS Office, StarOffice) work perfectly in this OS/printer combo. Any idea? :) Greetings Marcin
