I have a suggestion that might work. I don't use Windows anything, but this works for Notepad. 

Copy the text between the lines below into a file called regedit4.reg

-----------------------------------------
REGEDIT4

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop]
"FontSmoothing"="2"
"FontSmoothingType"=dword:00000002
"FontSmoothingGamma"=dword:00000578
"FontSmoothingOrientation"=dword:00000001

-----------------------------------------

Then in a terminal type 

wine regedit

In the drop-down Registry menu, hit Import Registry file, and navigate to where you have saved regedit4.reg

Hit "Open" then quit the application.
