    There should be builds of Abiword 2.0.1 for windows available soon and I'd
    recommend trying them as 1.0.4 is quite old.

    I rarely print from abiword, sorry all I can suggest is that you try to
    upgrade.

    To search the list archives I'd recommend
    using http://google.com and make sure to include
    site:abisource.com which will restrict the search to just the abiword
    website.

    The search function on Abisource.com (htdig) includes the mailing list
    archives but I find using google is easier.
