Re: squares instead of font characters since wine-0.9.13

Hi Piotr,

I had font-problems since version 0.9.9 (the system-font showed up in ugly "Courier"-style only). After months of googling and finding no help at all on the wine-lists, faqs, docs, etc., late last night I finally solved it by copying all files from an original XP's

c:\Windows\Fonts

to

/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TTF/


(TTF didn't previously exist).
(Finally found it here: http://mandrivausers.org/lofiversion/index.php/t30766.html)

I can't understand why the wine developers don't care at all about fonts. Wine looks so damn wracked and broken without proper fonts that this would even be an argument for not recommending the use of any commercial "Xover-office" solution... Aren't there people trying to fill their stomach with that commercial branch of wine?

do you know why when running wine-0.9.13 and all later versions of
wine, finale displays squares instead of font characters and when running wine 0.9.12 everything displays ok?

I have checked with wine versions that I have compiled from source on
mandrake 10.0. The wine directory was left without any changes.

thanks

Piotr
