--- Comment #17 from evanh evanh@clear.net.nz 2010-06-22 11:40:05 --- Ah, but Wine is doing the font handling just like Windoze does. In this case it's not Wine that is different to Windoze, instead it's your distro's placement of fonts.
Anyone that shifts or renames their font directory under Windoze will strike the exact same bug.
