The solution would be to provide a font pack with fonts with iso-8859-2
encoding acquired elsewhere, or to edit fonts with special software (provide
required glyphs).
If the 1st apporach is choosen, font replacements shouls be placed in
iso-8859-2 subdirectory of */AbiSuite/fonts - and AW will automatically load
them.
