I'm confirming the issue as well.

The Tahoma replacement shouldn't be register as a system font - it should be isolated for use by Wine only.

As you can see from the example screenshots posted, the Tahoma replacement TTF doesn't support anti-aliasing or hinting properly, and makes font rendering inconsistent, particularly on websites.

Would it be possible to embed the .ttf as a resource within Wine itself (either in the executable, or preloaded into the default ~/.wine configuration)?
