--- Comment #4 from Damon Brinson djb@damonbrinson.com 2008-02-17 20:14:56 --- I have the same problem with Word 2003 in Wine 0.9.54 on Kubuntu 7.10 (all pkgs current). Times New Roman is ALWAYS bold. (There's not even a "Normal" setting for that font in Wine, despite the presence of the non-bold, non-italic font.)
I installed Wine w/o incident via Adept Manager. Then, I installed MS Word in Wine via these instructions: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=676345&highlight=wine+office.
I didn't have msttcorefonts installed at that point, but after seeing the perma-bold fonts in Word, installed that pkg to see if it would help (with x-ttcidfont-conf). No change.
I've deleted and reinstalled the Times New Roman font via Kubuntu's font management interface in System Settings. No change.
I've even installed the M$ Times New Roman TTFs from XP into Kubuntu. No change.
Very frustrating. Willing to try something else to help troubleshoot/resolve the problem. VERY interested in getting it fixed.
