https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/abiword/+bug/1246111/

I was advised to open a new bug, even though bug number 1246111 describes the behaviour I am seeing.

1) The release of Ubuntu you are using, via 'lsb_release -rd' or System -> About Ubuntu

keith@saucer:~$ lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu 13.10
Release: 13.10
(Xubuntu 13.10)

2) The version of the package you are using, via 'apt-cache policy pkgname' or by checking in Software Center

keith@saucer:~$ apt-cache policy abiword
abiword:
  Installed: 3.0.0~svn20130523-1ubuntu2
  Candidate: 3.0.0~svn20130523-1ubuntu2
  Version table:
 *** 3.0.0~svn20130523-1ubuntu2 0
        500 http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ saucy/universe i386 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

3) What you expected to happen

Produce a document in Abiword
Save As a .abw file
Save As a .pdf file

4) What happened instead

Produce a document in Abiword
Save As a .abw file
Abiword crashes and produces a crash report file at /var/crash/_usr_bin_abiword.1000.crash

I shall attempt to upload the .crash file as an attachment
