Small chess fonts not displaying in CT-ART 6

[planarian]

CT-ART uses chess-piece fonts for the board and also the notation window (see attached). The board displays fine, but the notation shows little squares instead of pieces. The application has a fonts folder, and I've tried copying the fonts into windows/Fonts, but that doesn't have any effect. There are few errors when the application starts, but none of them seems to bear on this particular problem (though I don't know for sure)

Code: Select all

I'm using Wine 3.0 on Linux Mint 17 (though I've also found the same problem on OS X El Capitan)

After some further investigation, I suspect the problem is related to the fact that the fonts containing the notation symbols are .FON (the complete list is: cad_e_.fon, cad_f_.fon, cadiag.ttf, Is-tt-21.ttf, PRG55CHE2.TTF, PRG55CHE.TTF)

Does Wine require any special tweaks/extensions to handle .FON files?

Finally got an answer from the company: There a unicode font, AqChessUnicode.tt, that needs to be dropped in Windows/Fonts.

You mean it's not a wine issue?
