Adobe InDesign CS5 under WINE

disturbedfood · 05-29-2012, 02:00 PM

Hello, I installed Linux Mint 13 on my computer the other day (dual booting with Windows 7)

I wanted to see if I could run Adobe CS5 under Wine, and Photoshop and Fireworks work great. But when I try to run InDesign(I use it a lot in school) I get an error saying this:

"Adobe InDesign is missing required system fonts or CMap files. Please reinstall InDesign."

When I run it via the terminal, Wine gives me this output:

Code:

fixme:win:EnumDisplayDevicesW ((null),0,0x32f674,0x00000000), stub!
fixme:ntdll:NtSetInformationToken unimplemented class 24
fixme:ntdll:NtLockFile I/O completion on lock not implemented yet
fixme:advapi:SetNamedSecurityInfoW L"C:\\Program Files\\Common Files\\Adobe\\Adobe PCD\\cache" 1 -2147483644 0x16e85c 0x16e868 0x16e930 (nil)
fixme:advapi:SetNamedSecurityInfoW L"C:\\Program Files\\Common Files\\Adobe\\Adobe PCD\\cache" 1 -2147483644 0x17612c 0x176138 0x175b68 (nil)

I have tried copying all the TTF fonts from Windows to Linux, didn't help.

This would make me able to ditch Windows completely in school, so help is much appreciated!

Indesign 7 (the version in CS5), like all other versions of Indesign, has "Garbage" ranking in the Wine AppDB, so I doubt that you will get that working.

Not sure your EULA allows this to be done. That is the reason I hesitate to tell you how to do it and get it to work. I did test it for only a thing to see if it would work.
