Try googling something with "abiword font corruption" > or just "font corruption" and maybe some keywords. The only bug related to this that I can remember, is when AbiWord tried to load non-scaleable fonts, and tried to use them as being scaleable. But that was years ago, and we don't load those anymore. Furthermore they resulted in garbage on screen as well, not just in the printed output.
