-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi Steven et al...
You must be using an older version of AbiWord. This was "normal" with the verison that shipped with SuSE 7.3. But when I upgraded to SuSE 8.1 it was corrected. So I think that the anwser for you is to get the newst version and use it.
