Missing fonts in Acrobat reader in wine
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 runwineserver --kill
first. Also, this failed withsha256sum 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.
