Well, nevermind about removing the WordPerfect plugin, I was able to
do that by going into /usr/lib/AbiWord-2.4/plugins and removing
libAbiWordPerfect.so - that got rid of the libgsf error (similar to
instructions found in an archived email[1])
I had thought that the libgsf was what was preventing the images from
working in my conversion from Word doc format. When I open the doc[2]
in abiword graphically, the images show fine, but when I convert to
say HTML, they disappear.
What am I doing wrong? Is there a simple solution to have the html
converter grab the images properly? Thanks in advance for any help.
