[Bug 9982] New: Dragin NaturallySpeaking training module - text is too big.

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9982

Summary: Dragin NaturallySpeaking training module - text is too
                    big.
           Product: Wine
           Version: CVS/GIT
          Platform: PC
               URL: http://www.nuance.com
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: trivial
          Priority: P2
         Component: wine-misc
        AssignedTo: [e-mail]
        ReportedBy: [e-mail]

wine-0.9.46-249-g54a4717
When training Dragon NaturallySpeaking 9, the text in the training box has
gotten a bit bigger than it used to be. In one instance, one of the words
disappears below the rim of the box. 
The training box cannot be resized. 
To complete training, you have to pronounce all the words. So you have to know
that the word is there, and that you are supposed to say it.

Confirmed.  I saw this with the Alice in Wonderland
training sample, right when the rabbit was about to go down the hole.
Susan confirms that it happens for her on that and on
the Dave Barry one (her screenshot shows the latter).

The workaround is to just pick one of the other training
texts.

Wine patch to add "MS Shell Dlg 2" as Tahoma, and "MS Shell Dlg" as "Microsoft
Sans Serif"

This is a proper patch that would fix the font issue, unfortunately it doesn't
work since wine doesn't have a sans serif by default. As a workaround you can
use the sans serif from a windows installation.

"MS Shell Dlg" mapping to "Microsoft Sans Serif" (a TrueType font) was
introduced in win2k (I think), pervious versions of Windows has it mapped
to "MS Sans Serif" (a bitmap font). Wine has a replacement for "MS Sans Serif"
unfortunately recent Huw's patch broke usage of "MS Sans Serif" as a fallback
font, see bug 8983, bug 9995.

In general, introducing a font substitution to a font not existing in Wine
is a bad idea. If you revert the Huw's patch that has caused a regression in
the bugs above does it make things look better?

It looks slightly better with ms sans serif, however the bitmap font doesn't
scale and looks quite ugly with firefox. So truetype font with similar metrics
to sans serif is needed.

Inability to scale bitmap fonts is a Wine bug.

This is fixed as of wine-1.0-381-g92c8cac. 
(Or actually, as of the git before that, but I forgot to make a note.)
Text looks great now, nice and crisp, smaller than it was. Everything fits.
