Ubuntu – How to change default font size in menus after Wine

This not the best way as it involves changing the size for all applications, but it's the only way I know.

• Press Alt + F2 and type gnome-appearance-properties.
• Start the Appearance Preferences application from the search result.
• Go to the Fonts tab.
• Change the Application Fonts font settings.

This does have to do with the anti-aliasing in Windows. It expects you to have it on in the OS, so they don't bother re-creating anti-aliasing in the Office Suite. If you disabled the anti-aliasing in Windows, it would look the same.

If wine's own font smoothing does not work, then I don't think it will. Here's a test to make sure its just the display that's wrong. Print something...does it look okay?

Maybe post a complaint on WineHQ under the Microsoft Office information; they may be able to help you more (and possibly fix the problem in their next update).

I have seen this problem too (on my own computer, I have Office installed as well). I learned to ignore it. Also try zooming in on the text to make it look a little better. Setting the view to page-width may help a lot.
