--- Comment #8 from Todd Chester ToddAndMargo@zoho.com --- I got burned by this one too. Without MS Sans Serif, Lotus Approach's tabs and Lotus Word Pro's pull up menus at the bottom give microscopic fonts.
fc-match 'MS Sans Serif' sserife.fon: "MS Sans Serif" "Regular"
So it is there and active and registered.
I had to copy sserife.fon directly into ".wine/drive_c/windows/Fonts" to Approach and Word Pro to find it.
Which means I have to remember to do this for every WINEPREFIX I create.
