Standard Installation Procedure

apt-get remove wine

Install crossover office into /opt/cxoffice.

ln -s /opt/cxoffice/bin/wine /usr/bin/wine

Now you can use the wine command to start windows apps.

Font Size

If your fonts are too tiny for your screen, you can alter the registry.

wine ~/.cxoffice/dotwine/fake_windows/Windows/regedit.exe

Edit the key "HKEY_CURRENT_CONFIG\Software\Fonts" and alter the entry "LogPixels" to e.g. "96" (decimal). This is the value in dpi (dots per inch).

If the key is not there, import the following lines.

[HKEY_CURRENT_CONFIG\Software\Fonts]
"LogPixels"="96"
