It will install and load properly, but when you connect to a server, the fonts appear as very strange and unreadable characters.

How does it work there? I tried messing around with corefonts and windowsfonts but that didn't help. Then i thought have a look in the registry , and there i found a reference to some strange fontname i never saw (PSFascii or something like that). When i change that into tahoma, at least i can read the letters, they are normal characters again.

Running the installed app, using terminal.mdeca.org as the server to connect to, the text displayed in the terminal window was in a Greek font. I found the registry key mentioned in comment #1 and changed it to Tahoma as described, and when I reconnected the text displayed normally.

I just installed wine 1.1.27. It is still an issue. I found special font entries: PsfASCII and PsfDecSpecGraph. I changed them both over to tahoma, and it functionally works. I believe the PsfDecSpecGraph was used for line drawing. So the boxes around the text shows as letters. If there is a way to make it use the terminal font, it would look correct.

Once I did that, the font displayed fine. I also checked how the app behaves in XP (I had to boot into it today anyway for something else), and it created the same registry key and installed the font into C:\Documents and Settings\dimesio\Application Data\Esker\Persona Windows Client\Fonts.

Does not work here: only once the program shows normal characters. Starting the next time reverts to the symbol font. It is also not true that wine cannot find/use the font in the application data directory: 0009:Call gdi32.AddFontResourceA(0015089c "C:\\windows\\profiles\\rein\\Applicatie Data\\Esker\\Persona Windows Client\\Fonts\\psfascii.TTF") ret=0040a6c1 0009:trace:font:AddFontToList Loading font file "/home/rein/.winetest/dosdevices/c:/windows/profiles/rein/Applicatie Data/Esker/Persona Windows Client/Fonts/psfascii.TTF" index 0 0009:trace:font:AddFontToList fsCsb = 00000001 00000000/00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 0009:trace:font:AddFontToList Added font L"PsfASCII" L"Roman" 0009:Ret gdi32.AddFontResourceA() retval=00000001 ret=0040a6c1 The problem is I think that on XP the font dialog shows as a "Symbol" font. On wine it is a regular font. Checked using notepad. Thus when the applications requests loading the "psfascii" font it specifies the characterset "SYMBOL". Wine's fontmapper returns some symbol font, but not psfascii since that does not fulfills the basic requirement: 0009:Call gdi32.SelectObject(00000314,000054f4) ret=0040bbb2 0009:trace:font:WineEngCreateFontInstance L"PsfASCII", h=43, it=0, weight=400, PandF=00, charset=2 orient 0 escapement 0 0009:trace:font:WineEngCreateFontInstance DC transform 1.000000 0.000000 0.000000 1.000000 0009:trace:font:WineEngCreateFontInstance not in cache 0009:trace:font:WineEngCreateFontInstance (it=0, bd=0) is selected for (it=0, bd=0) 0009:trace:font:WineEngCreateFontInstance Chosen: L"Inkpen2 Special" L"Regular" (/home/rein/.winetest/dosdevices/c:/windows/Fonts/Ink2spec.TTF/(nil):0) -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.
