Hi... I'm running Debian 5 (Lenny) and using wine packages from http://www.lamaresh.net/apt lenny main, which contains wine version 1.1.12.
I've installed MS Office 2003 without problems, but when I start up word the fonts are choppy/blocky/what-have-you, but certainly not being AA.
I came across a thread on this forum that suggested adding a file to the registry. I can do that on windows, but don't know how to do it on wine, so I just opened up regedit and added the appropiate values in the right places:
"FontSmoothing"="2", "FontSmoothingOrientation"="dword:000" , etc.
Still no joy. I then reconfigured my fonts using dpkg-reconfigure fontconfig-config in order to make sure that autohinting wasn't being used (on native), and bmp fonts were disabled. Upon restarting 'x', still no AA joy.
I would appreciate some help getting this to work, as the fonts are the primary reason I don't use Word on a regular basis.
