Summary: Use fallback fonts for MS core fonts
Product: Wine
Version: 1.1.23
Platform: PC
URL: http://www.winehq.org/pipermail/wine-users/2009-June/0
55078.html
OS/Version: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: -unknown
AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
ReportedBy: leonardof at gnome.org
Many applications take for granted the availability of fonts like Arial, Times
New Roman etc. Recently, on a fresh installation, I found myself unable to use
all my regular Windows applications on Wine becaause of unreadable text, and
the issue was solved by installing the ttf-mscorefonts package.
Please make sure applications will use equivalent fonts (eg Vera, DejàVu,
Liberation) when they look for absent "core" fonts. Thanks!
