           Summary: wingdings font alternative
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.3.9
          Platform: x86
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown

hi,
i'm using metatrader (MT4 & MT5) and so need to display some special signs like
"arrow" provided by wingdings.ttf while using Windows.

As i dont use/have Windows anymore i've installed ttf-opensymbol (ubuntu
maverick i386) to get an alternative and can be found into:
/usr/share/fonts/truetype/openoffice/ as "opens__.ttf".

The problem is: this font have to be copied into /windows/Fonts/ inside .wine
because it dont find it into openoffice dir and wine1.3 dont propose it as a
dependency, winetricks dont help neither.

As a sub-note: inside /windows/Fonts/ i'm seeing fonts naming either with ttf
uppercase (Times.TTF) or lowercase (unifont.ttf) or mixed (DroidSans.ttf).
Those are installed either by wine1.3 itself or by winetricks. As everything is
case sensitive, i wonder if wine is able to use both uppercase & lowercase ttf
fonts (need to be normalized).
