The TTSNOTE.FOR font, I found, resides within the application's folder in Program Files and appears to go through this motion every time it starts up. So, my guess is that it goes away after the program closes. I know that on my Win install, the app never permanently moves the font to my system fonts folder. Anybody have a workaround for making this work? Thanks! Hiji __ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo! Mail has the best spam protection around http://mail.yahoo.com

Temporary means that the font will be available to the current session only (no entirely sure here if font will stay after program closes or will be available). Vitaliy
CreateScalableFontResourceA: what does it mean?
There is this program, Cakewalk Sonar XL 2 (http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?versionId=2615) that I always try to run on Wine. The good news is, I can get it running, not smoothly, but it does run. However, it tries to utilize one of its own fonts, and always stubs on CreateScalableFontResourceA. It hits this: fixme:font:CreateScalableFontResourceA (0,"C:\\PROG~FBU\\Cakewalk\\SONA~3TJ\\TTSNOTE.FOR","C:\\PROG~FBU\\Cakewalk\\SONA~3TJ\\TTSNOTE.TTR",(null)): stub Then the app tells me the following in a popup: "Cannot create the Staff view musical symbol font." Anybody know what this means or have any workaround for making CreateScalableFontResourceA work? I've seen this problem since Dec. 2004, but since it hasn't gone away, I thought I'd pipe up and ask about it. Thanks in advance! Hiji __ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
