[Bug 46966] New: Steuersparerklärung 2018 (German tax program) generates forms with low quality
https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=46966 Bug ID: 46966 Summary: Steuersparerklärung 2018 (German tax program) generates forms with low quality Product: Wine Version: 4.5 Hardware: x86 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org Reporter: ulrich.gemkow(a)ikr.uni-stuttgart.de Distribution: --- Created attachment 64119 --> https://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=64119 Generated pdf Steuersparerklärung 2018 (German tax program, no free download available) has a function to print the tax forms to .pdf. The grayed (fixed) parts in the form are printed with low-res fonts and are nearly unreadable. Maybe the attached log-file (WINEDEBUG=+font) and the created .pdf (relevant are the pages starting with the third page) gives some hint. The corefonts are installed. -- 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.

"winetricks gdiplus" seems to help. Can you please check how the PDF looks with that workaround? -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=46966 --- Comment #4 from Ulrich Gemkow <ulrich.gemkow(a)ikr.uni-stuttgart.de> --- Thanks for looking into this! I confirm your observation for the 2018 version that with native gdiplus the screen preview in demo mode looks better. Unfortunately I have thrown away the license key for the 2018 version so I cannot create the pdf anymore to check its quality. I tried to check with the current (2022) version but this gives an exception soon after start and so I am currently unable to verify whether pdf creation with native gdiplus will work. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

Potentially bug 50760. Although the trial from 2022 (27.33.86) works for me. What Wine version are you using? Please try the most recent and post your results to bug 50760. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

I will further look into the form quality problem... -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=46966 --- Comment #7 from Ulrich Gemkow <ulrich.gemkow(a)ikr.uni-stuttgart.de> --- Indeed, using the native gdiplus solves the problem with form quality also in the pdf (tested with Steuersparerklaerung 2022). -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.
