What is a .ABW file?
ABW is the document format of the free AbiWord word processor.
- Did you know
- AbiWord is a lightweight open-source word processor, and ABW is its native format.
- The name AbiWord traces to the Spanish word “abierto”, meaning open, fitting for a free cross-platform word processor.
- AbiWord came from AbiSource, a venture by SourceGear, and its first public release appeared in 1998 under the GNU GPL.
- What Analyser shows you
