9.3 was released with a regression in gdiplus wrt. text output - it's already fixed in the repo (mr5144) - you may check if that's your problem.
Thanks for the pointer! At the moment I'm using prebuilt packages for ubuntu 23.10 so it could take some time to verify. I checked that vanilla wine 9.3 (packaged as wine-devel) isn't affected, only staging so it has to be a regression on that side.
