Summary: wingdings font alternative Product: Wine Version: 1.3.9 Platform: x86 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: dyvazar@numericable.fr
hi, i'm using metatrader (MT4 & MT5) and so need to display some special signs like "arrow" provided by wingdings.ttf while using Windows.
As i dont use/have Windows anymore i've installed ttf-opensymbol (ubuntu maverick i386) to get an alternative and can be found into: /usr/share/fonts/truetype/openoffice/ as "opens__.ttf".
The problem is: this font have to be copied into /windows/Fonts/ inside .wine because it dont find it into openoffice dir and wine1.3 dont propose it as a dependency, winetricks dont help neither.
As a sub-note: inside /windows/Fonts/ i'm seeing fonts naming either with ttf uppercase (Times.TTF) or lowercase (unifont.ttf) or mixed (DroidSans.ttf). Those are installed either by wine1.3 itself or by winetricks. As everything is case sensitive, i wonder if wine is able to use both uppercase & lowercase ttf fonts (need to be normalized).
