Summary: Incorrect Font Displayed After Install
Product: Wine
Version: 1.0.0
Platform: PC
URL: see Description
OS/Version: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: gdi32
AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
ReportedBy: pbronline-wine at yahoo.co.uk
Occurs with Corel WordPerfect Office X3 and WordPerfect Office 12.
Start installer. Note font (print snapshot or whatever). Install application,
Quit installer. Start installer again. Font displayed is different.
With WordPerfect Office X3, the effect is obvious as the 'wrong' font is a
symbol font. With WordPerfect Office 12, the 'wrong' font is very narrow (I
think this may have previsouly been reported as <<poor rendering>>).
Problem affects not just the installers but also service packs and the
applications themselves (particularly Presentations). I would expect it
affects all installed applications.
To confirm the problem ...
1. remove all references to Corel installed fonts from system.reg which ever
way you choose but the following works:
cd .wine
mv system.reg system.reg~
sed -e '/TrueType.*C:.*\.TTF/d' -e '/TrueType.*C:.*\.ttf/d' system.reg~ >
system.reg
2. move Corel installed fonts to one side for a moment:
mv drive_c/windows/Fonts drive_c/windows/Fonts.wpo
mkdir drive_c/windows/Fonts
3. Start installer. Font is back to what is was before installation. Quit
installer.
3. Put back a bad font:
cp -p drive_c/windows/Fonts.wpo/WPCO03N_.TTF drive_c/windows/Fonts
4. Start installer. Symbol font makes screen indecypherable.
5. Try other fonts. Not all override the 'good' font. MTEXTRA.TTF and
WPHV04N_.TTF do.
Downloads ?
WordPerfect Office X3:

Professional (aka not Trial) Edition is 'fun' to install. See bug 14106.
WordPerfect Office 12:
Not available for download anymore as far as I can tell. Perhaps one of the
nice people who contributed to bug 2547 can help.
Standard (aka not Trial) Edition installs nicely under Wine 1.0.
