Summary: Symbol font inaccessible (noticed in klsoft.de's Mathematik) Product: Wine Version: 1.1.10 Platform: Other URL: http://www.klsoft.de/download/klasse5.exe OS/Version: other Status: NEW Keywords: download Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: fonts AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: dank@kegel.com

To reproduce:
unzip http://www.klsoft.de/download/klasse5.exe cd "KLSoft - Mathematik" wine "Klasse 5 Demoversion.exe" Click on the lower right button "Bedienungsanleitung" A help window will pop up. There is supposed to be a bulleted list, but the bullets are either rendered as squares or are missing.
Workaround: copy file symbol.ttf from Microsoft Windows to ~/.fonts
Annoyingly, the font "Standard Symbol L" (a urw font which is preinstalled on Ubuntu Intrepid /usr/share/fonts/type1/gsfonts/s050000l.*, see also http://svn.ghostscript.com/viewvc/trunk/ghostpdl/urwfonts/StandardSymL.ttf and http://svn.ghostscript.com/viewvc/trunk/urw-fonts/StandardSymL.afm ) should have the needed symbols, but wine doesn't seem to be able to use it. Intrepid doesn't come with the .ttf version of that font, but downloading it and copying it into ~/.font doesn't help like copying the Microsoft one does.
Hmm, why isn't that font available to wine and/or why aren't the symbols found?

--- Comment #1 from Dan Kegel dank@kegel.com 2008-12-24 13:12:04 --- You can also see more of the problem by clicking 'Vor' twice to go two pages forward to "3. Eingabe und Ergebnisprüfung"; there are several table cells that use symbols. In particular:
Wurzel: Check [where Check is the square root symbol] ... Stoch.-Funktionen ... Normalverteilung Phi(3) [where Phi is the greek letter] Umkehrfkt der Normalerteilung Psi(0.7) [where Pis is the greek lettr]
All of these look fine with MS's symbol.ttf in ~/.fonts.

--- Comment #4 from Dan Kegel dank@kegel.com 2008-12-26 10:37:37 --- Gaah. I looked at the list of font bugs, and somehow missed that one. I'm lucky I can see the screen in front of my face.
