Subject: Gnome build of 0.9.4.1 only prints in Charter

I'm running Debian testing ("Woody") with XFree86 4.1 and (non-Ximian)
Gnome 1.4. I downloaded the AbiWord 0.9.4.1 tar file today and
compiled it both with Gnome support (ABI_OPT_GNOME=1) and without,
following the directions on the download page.
The build with Gnome support prints all files in the Bitstream
Charter font. Files display with proper fonts, but print (either to a
printer or to PDF) in Bitstream Charter with peculiar letter
spacing. (The print preview also clearly shows the document as being
in badly spaced Bitstream Charter, too.) I'm using the default
AbiWord Type 1 fonts only.
The build without Gnome support prints these same files properly,
using the correct fonts.
I guessed this might be a gnome-print problem, but as an ignorant user
I haven't been able to remedy the situation. I played around with
"gnome-font-install" and created a gnome-print.fontmap file
in /usr/share/gnome/fonts that listed the AbiWord fonts, but this
didn't change anything. I have gnome-print 0.31.
Any suggestions? The non-Gnome build is fine, but I like the
print preview and pdf capabilities of the Gnome version.
