wine users - Dec 2004 - Fonts have changed w/o warning

Newbie here,

I've been installing apps and they've been working pretty darn good. I 
don't know what I did (or what an installer did), but now all my fonts 
(I mean ALL) are wingdings (or wingding-ish) looking. Obviously, I can't 
read a darn thing.

config hasn't changed and my location of fonts haven't either. It 
appears to me that some default pointer must have changed. I've rpm -e 
wine and them reinstalled but same problem

Any ideas?

brad

I'll tell you what I did which seemed to fix this problem. But, I'd 
still like to know why the fonts all of a sudden changed to wingdings.

I copied my own  TTF files to a TTF folder and then designated this path 
in the config file. The default (system) fonts then worked -- no more 
wingdings.
