--- Comment #1 from François Gouget <fgouget at codeweavers.com> ---
As is probably obvious to specialists, I think the cause of the failure is the
selection of the "MS Shell Dlg" substitute:

LANG=ar_MA.UTF-8 picks "Microsoft Sans Serif" as the substitute and fails:

  005c:trace:font:load_gdi_font_subst Got L"MS Shell Dlg"=L"Microsoft Sans
Serif"
  005c:trace:font:load_gdi_font_subst Got L"MS Shell Dlg 2"=L"Tahoma"
  ...
  0034:trace:font:load_system_links L"Microsoft Sans Serif": L"MSGOTHIC.TTC,MS
UI Gothic"
  0034:trace:font:find_face_from_filename looking for file L"MSGOTHIC.TTC" name
L"MS UI Gothic"

  I don't have any "*msgothic*" file so I don't think I have the "MS UI Gothic"
  font (and find_face_from_filename() does not find it).


LANG=ja_JP.UTF-8 picks "MS UI Gothic" as the substitute and fails:

  0034:trace:font:load_gdi_font_subst Got L"MS Shell Dlg"=L"MS UI Gothic"
  0034:trace:font:load_gdi_font_subst Got L"MS Shell Dlg 2"=L"Tahoma"

  Still no "*msgothic*" file...


LANG=zh_CN.UTF-8 picks "SimSun" as the substitute and fails:

  0034:trace:font:load_gdi_font_subst Got L"MS Shell Dlg"=L"SimSun"
  0034:trace:font:load_gdi_font_subst Got L"MS Shell Dlg 2"=L"Tahoma"

  It then goes looking for a "SIMSUN.TTC" file which I don't have.


LANG=(en_US|fr_FR|de_DE).UTF-8 pick Tahoma as the substitute and succeed:

  0034:trace:font:load_gdi_font_subst Got L"MS Shell Dlg"=L"Tahoma"
  0034:trace:font:load_gdi_font_subst Got L"MS Shell Dlg 2"=L"Tahoma"


So it looks like the issue is Wine picks a nonexistent font as the substitute
for "MS Shell Dlg". Is there some open-source font I'm missing for these
locales? Or at least some freely redistributable one?
