Hi,
Does anyone know if it's possible to use the serif font from the Windows version on the Linux version (steam) for CivIV ?
The Linux font isn't as pretty as the Windows one.
Thanks

EDIT:
Actually, after installing the microsoft fonts on my archlinux setup I get the serif font (sylfaen) but still some issues with the display of the text, compare to Windows setup. The % symbol in the research bar is not completely displayed, also its bolding isn't exactly like on Windows.

Steam doesn't have a native Linux version, it uses Proton, which is based on Wine. So the problem should be solved at a lower level.

Font problems are described on WineHQ page: https://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=10158.
See the "HowTo" section

Anything missing in the case of Proton can be installed via protontricks. I suggest you should try to use these instructions, they worked for me on Ubuntu
