Polish characters looked correct in printing and "print preview" 
window just after installing abiword-gnome-i686 and abiword-fonts-
noarch rpm's, without any additional steps. 

Still polish characters were not displayed correctly on screen. After 
changing all occurences of "iso8859-1" to "iso8859-2" in file 
"/usr/share/AbiSuite/fonts/fonts.dir" for all listed fonts the problem 
was gone and now I have Polish characters both on screen and on 
paper.

So if the above change helped, that means I am using AbiWord's 
fonts, am I right ? And the fonts listed in AbiWord's font selection 
box have the same names as listed in 
"/usr/share/AbiSuite/fonts/fonts.dir", and I didn't make any effort to 
use RedHat's fonts - I didn't copy them anywhere, neither created 
"locale.u2g" file.

The command in the "print" window is simply "lpr", without any 
filtering. I print on Xerox DocuPrint P1210 installed as a HP 
LaserJet 4.

I am not a Linux expert and I don't really know why it works, but it 
does.
