Hello,

just put arial.ttf, wingdings.ttf and symbol.ttf font files (referenced in
resource/jre/lib/font.properties file from unpacked installer/JRE folder) into
your windows fonts folder.
Alternatively use 'winetricks corefonts' which does this for you.

That font manager JNI wrapper is just a crappy piece of software with bad error
handling habits.
It will easily crash on missing or broken fonts - also common on native
Windows.
Just look into Sun's bugzilla for a crapload of bugs regarding this issue.

In short: this is nothing Wine can fix because it doesn't ship these fonts.

Regards
