Anyway continuing to search for possible solutions i saw that the code was also checking for "MS sans serif" but that font also has the same problem as segoescript and thus unfortunately i can't provide a legal way to fix the bug. The only legal solution without patching the dll is getting it from a microsoft windows installation (windows vista 5.00 or above) or some other software that legally ships the font. The only thing wine can do to fix this, is to reverse engineer the segoe script or ms sans serif fonts.
actually the solution is super easy the only thing the program does is check for the string "Segoe Script" inside the font you place in $WINEPREFIX/drive_c/windows/Fonts/. you just open any font up in fontforge then you ctrl+shift+f and the you edit the Fontname to SegoeScript Family Name to Segoe Script Name for Humans to Segoe Script Preferred Family to Segoe Script. then ignore all warnings. ctrl+shift+g to generate the font and select type to truetype . now disable error checking and click generate. i think this is a fix since it's something feasible that a wine package can provide some fake stub fonts like this to fool some programs. For example i used the gnu unifont for this which is obviously a free font. Let me know if this is a proper solution and if the bug should be closed. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.
