[Bug 17936] New: Wine chooses Arial Black instead of Arial font
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=17936 Summary: Wine chooses Arial Black instead of Arial font Product: Wine Version: 1.1.18 Platform: PC-x86-64 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: minor Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org ReportedBy: q.winehq(a)rsn-tech.co.uk Created an attachment (id=20271) --> (http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=20271) Excerpt from output with WINEDEBUG=font I just updated Qimage (http://www.ddisoftware.com/qimage) to version 2009.209 and the UI displays with the wrong font. For some reason the Wine font engine thinks that Arial Black is a better match for the requested font than Arial, which is what the app asks for and what it gets with Windows. If I physically delete the ariblk.ttf file, it will use Arial as desired. It did this with the 1.1.14 version in my distro (Fedora 9 64-bit) and also with 1.1.18 freshly compiled from source. -- 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.

Where have you got from your ariblk.ttf font file? It looks pretty much unusual (if not broken): its font name should be "Arial Black" not "Arial" "Black". -- 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.

You have 2 ariblk.ttf files installed in your system: /usr/share/fonts/webcore/ariblk.ttf.xxx (which is OK) and /home/steve/.wine/dosdevices/c:/windows/Fonts/ariblk.ttf (which is broken). Please remove the latter one. -- 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.

I thought that by appending .xxx to the filename I was making it invisible to the font engine, not that it was still finding it but not misusing it. However, when you say it's "broken", it's Microsoft who have broken it. A bit of Googling shows other people having some problems with this version (2.40) purely in Windows, eg, http://forums.techarena.in/windows-update/967926.htm It seems to be fixed there too by reverting to the older version (2.35) which is what I've got in webcore, but that's obviously a workaround rather than a solution. AIUI, the update is part of XP SP3, so if you haven't installed that, it would explain why your Windows version didn't misbehave. -- 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.

Are you saying that you have ariblk.ttf version 2.40 dated 1-1-2007, CRC32=f6253264 and it works fine for you? I'm not suggesting that HTML rendering is directly relevant, merely that it's one example (and not the only one) of version 2.40 causing problems which were not present with 2.35. That is, it's not simply that I've got a corrupt font file, but MS have changed something and some software has a problem with that change. There may be other factors, of course, and perhaps the problem is not triggered in all circumstances. -- 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.

C:\WINNT\Fonts>md5sum ariblk.ttf cd5be9b2c6cdf620fb47f7ca7431dc58 *ariblk.ttf
$ md5sum ~/.wine/drive_c/windows/Fonts/ariblk.ttf cd5be9b2c6cdf620fb47f7ca7431dc58 /home/steve/.wine/drive_c/windows/Fonts/ariblk.ttf If I delete the file, Arial displays properly; if it's present, it does not. I've now realised that my original association of the problem with a Qimage update was just accidental - reinstalling the previous Qimage version doesn't change anything, and other apps which try to use Arial behave in the same way.
