That's not different from Windows when required font is missing in the underlying system.
Yes, but Wine is not about replicating all deficiencies of Windows. It could do better sometimes ;-)
Predefined API behaviour and philosophical speculations are mutually exclusive things.
How is substituting fonts in a wine registry entry a predefined API behaviour?
Because Wine behaves the same way as Windows does when a font is missing.
This is a minimal regedit file that fixes my application: REGEDIT4 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\FontSubstitutes] "System"="MS Shell Dlg" [HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-4\Software\Wine\Fonts\Replacements] "MS UI Gothic"="Sazanami Gothic"
That's exactly which I was talking about - a missing Windows font. This clearly makes this bug invalid.
