Bug Description
Binary package hint: abiword
1) lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu 11.04
Release: 11.04
2) apt-cache policy abiword

3) What is expected is when one performs the following at the Terminal:
unoconv --listener &
Then types:
cd ~/Desktop && wget https:/
it displays the same indentation in AbiWord as it does in Word 2003.
4) What happens instead is the indentation is zeroed out. This is found via highlighting the first ports 0010 -> secondary click -> primary click Paragraph... -> Indents and Spacing tab -> Notice the Indentation Left: & Right: are both 0.0000in
However, open the same file in Word 2003 via the Terminal:
wine "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\
highlight the first ports 0010 -> click Format -> Paragraph... -> Indents and Spacing tab -> notice below Indentation the combo box Left: 0.1" while the combo box Right: 0.16"
WORKAROUND: Covert the file to .doc using AbiWord via the Terminal:
abiword --to=doc --to-name=
WORKAROUND: Use LibreOffice.
