Missing fonts in Acrobat reader in wine












0














I have managed to install Adobe Acrobat Reader (the only "free" PDF editor I could find) in wine. This is working, but a lot of texts are not being rendered.



I have run the following to install it (based on this guide):



winetricks mspatcha
wine path/to/installer.exe


I did fail and retry several times, so I may or may not have selected a 32-bit version.



Anyway, it works, but some fonts are missing. It is usable, but sometimes I really do miss the texts, eg in pop-up messages.



Does anyone know how to fix these fonts?

          To ensure that you have correct links to downloads update WineTricks as recommended on its page.



          wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Winetricks/winetricks/master/src/winetricks
          chmod +x winetricks


          And then place it in correct location



          sudo cp winetricks $(which winetricks)


          Then try to install all fonts with it:



          winetricks allfonts

          • I had to run wineserver --kill first. Also, this failed with sha256sum mismatch! Rename /home/remco/.cache/winetricks/PowerPointViewer/PowerPointViewer.exe and try again.. I retried this several times yesterday and today.

          • I updated answer - you should download newer WineTricks. It seems that version from repository has broken links.
