Has anyone had any success installing Hornresp 55.1 on Wine 8.0? I am stuck with the lack of the "MS Sans Serif" font. I've downloaded it (micross.ttf) and installed it manually to /usr/share/wine/font, /usr/share/fonts, and even to the drive_c/windows/Fonts folder but it fails to be recognised.
Not sure it wouldn't be best to post this question in the hornresp thread - https://www.diyaudio.com/community/threads/hornresp.119854/unread
It's been a while but I've run hornresp on wine. Wine often has font sizing issues but it did work.

Very likely since I'm still finding my feet and wasn't sure but that thread seems to have become very nebulous.
What Allen said. Try this or some variation. Personally, I don't do it there but in the /usr/share/truetype/msttcorefonts directory with symlinks if I have to or just copying the old fonts file in there, etc. Just a couple examples of the "some assembly required" usual linux life... People have things running a lot of different ways 🙂
@grindstone After taking one on the chin for my apparent blindness I had a glimmer of hope with the possibility that I was simply using the wrong font file. Alas, it still didn't recognise the font but I then quickly realised that I had used sudo to copy the fonts so they were owned by root. Changing ownership fixed it, life and everything. Sweet! That post was essentially what I needed so many thanks.
