OK, on further investigation maybe there's a better way to look at it. If an italic style font actually exists (ariali.ttf, for example) that name gets assigned in TRichView. It then prints correctly whether in WinXP or WINE. If there's no italic style font (as is standard for Tahoma) then TRichView ...

Figured it out. I looked at the rvf file generated with unicode and then tracked it back from there. Apparently TRichView and whatever other libraries it uses don't know how to handle printing italic type when there's no italic ttf to go with the font. I was using Tahoma font, there's no "standard ...

Thanks for the help on charset. I was able to do as you said and it worked.

Do you have ideas on the second issue? Printing italics?

Could you check the file at this link on the WINE forum and see if the DEFAULT_CHARSET is properly set? http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=38480 Could you also verify that the WinAPI functions are getting called with the correct parameters? e.g., with DEFAULT_CHARSET and not SHIFTJIS_CHARSET ...

Using the ActionTest demo from the download page, how do I change the charset? I guess the question also applies when using the RichView class within another application, too.

Here's what I got for a response over at the WINE bug forum: The problem is that RichView class (that the application is using internally) decides to use font "times new roman" with charset 128 (SHIFTJIS_CHARSET) for unicode text, and Wine chooses some random, i.e. "appropriate" font from an ...

OK. Guess we'll have to see what the code gurus over at WINE can do. Thanks.

I'm using ActionTest (latest version) under WINE 1.3.37 on Kubuntu 11.10. The problem is not new, been around for several years; I just haven't gotten around to figuring it out. ActionTest works fine in WINE using ANSI files/text. Not so with Unicode. If I copy Unicode text and paste it into ...
