Summary: Freelancer renders huge fonts sizes
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.1.10
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org
        ReportedBy: kai@kaishome.de
My resolution is set to 1600x1200 which computes to 126dpi on my monitor. In
Xorg this is fine, programs render nice. But it's common knowledge that most
windows programs look ugly or render unusable dialogs when the font resolution
is set other than 96dpi. So in winecfg I set it to 96 dpi and all windows
programs I try render correctly (with tiny fonts however - but that's okay for
a windows program ;-)).
But it looks like either wine doesn't respect that when rendering Freelancers
fonts or it renders font sizes wrong on opengl surfaces independent of dpi
settings.
In Freelancer there are overlapping texts in almost any dialog (attaching an
example screenshot). The buy screen is almost unusable.
Maybe it's related: In some dialogs (eg. mission briefings) I find something
that looks like html code and I suppose it comes from the dialogs utilizing rtf
code to do the formatting. Some rtf tags are ignored by wine and rendered plain
text - so formatting isn't really working. Maybe this relates to the incorrect
font sizes...
