Summary: Notepad in Hebrew shows some squares instead of characters Product: Wine Version: 1.2-rc6 Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: Paul.Vriens.Wine@gmail.com
Created an attachment (id=29391) --> (http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=29391) Screenshot showing the squares
We now have a Hebrew translation of notepad. The goal was to have at least one translation in so we can see what bugs we currently have with respect to Hebrew (and Arabic for that matter).
The screenshot shows some squares where it should show Hebrew text.
I have no idea where to look yet. The title bar seems fine but the text in the dialog isn't.
Some of the other dialogs also shows squares but I guess it boils down to the same bug.

LANG=he_IL.UTF-8 wine notepad
(the translations were added after 1.2-rc6)

'winetricks tahoma' makes the text appear.

Add Hebrew glyphs to built-in Wine fonts.

--- Comment #8 from butraxz@gmail.com 2013-06-30 08:43:58 CDT --- This ticket has not been updated for over 900 days.
Is this still an issue in wine version 1.6-rc4 or higher or is this to be closed as abandoned ?

--- Comment #10 from Yehoshua tutor4torah@gmail.com --- I am having a similar problem with a Hebrew pgm displaying lines and squares even when i run it with LANG he_IL.UTF-8 - although then the menu bars are in hebrew just the texts are still lines. I installed Tahoma - but perhaps i didn't put it into the right folder or something - i also downloaded TTF - fonts - but again - perhaps i didn't put it in the right place - i am not very adept at this stuff - so clear instructions is most appreciated. regarding my system - Ubuntu 14.04 and i have the latet version of wine 1.7.44 re: the pgm i am opening - the file properties under"Command" it says {env WINEPREFIX="/home/yehoshua/.wine" wine C:\DBS\TaklitorTorani.Exe } and the location is /home/yehoshua/Desktop. and the terminal gives me this error:fixme:ole:RemUnknown_QueryInterface No interface for iid {00000019-0000-0000-c000-000000000046} Thanks for any help Yehoshua

--- Comment #11 from Omer I.S. omeritzicschwartz@gmail.com --- As Windows uses Arial font as the basic Hebrew fallback font, adding it can solve the problem (or at least improve the support).
