But I've got another problem: How do I get Abiword to use my input-method?
Is this SuSE Linux 7.3? It did not yet work on SuSE Linux 7.2. Apart from that, you shouldn't have to do anything special to use xcin for Abiword. It's the same as for any other XIM supporting application.
And it doesn't give me the Arphic font as an option.
You could use them for display by editing
/usr/share/AbiSuite/fonts/zh-TW/fonts.dir
/usr/share/AbiSuite/fonts/fonts.alias
but that is quite useless as you can't yet use them for printing
from Abiword because the Ghostscript on SuSE Linux 7.3 doesn't
yet support CJK-TrueType fonts.
But the two CID-keyed Postscript fonts 'Moe Sung' and 'Moe Kai'
supported by the default setup of Abiword in SuSE Linux 7.3 look also
quite nice, so there is no urgent need to use the Arphic fonts for
Abiword.
You can use the Arphic fonts with CJK-LaTeX.
