My Abiword 2.8.6 can't print RTF correctly.

Hi!

I'm using Abiword to read and print RTF files generated by a program I wrote.
These documents include some simple text and a table, and page breaks.

I can display and print these documents OK in textEdit on a Mac
I can display and print these documents OK in Abiword 2.6.4 that is installed
on my Mepis 8.0.15 install

With Abiword 2.8.6 that installed with Ubuntu 10.10, I can read and display
the documents OK on the screen, but print preview and printing give a very
stramge result: the layout is preserved, but only the first letter of a
sentence (or the first number in a table cell) are shown (actually, there are
also a few other letters, but I see no clear pattern).

Note that if the document includes only 1 page, it prints OK.

Is this a 2.8.6 problem, or is it only Ubuntu's version?

Thierry
