Steuer

Steuer 2017 is currently being sold by the German grocery discount chain "Aldi" and features various dialogues a tax advisor would ask to make German tax declarations. It is being sold in a DVD-box but can also be downloaded if you have a serial-number which comes on the back of the manual inside the DVD-box.

    Font rendering fix
    by aytic on Wednesday March 21st 2018, 12:36
    Leaving a short guide + shellscript on how to improve the font rendering for this program.

    www.wine-reviews.net/2009/03/how-to-enable-font-anti-aliasing-in.html

    This solution will make about 95% of the font better. Some captions on the buttons will be really hard to read though (thus looking for more fixes). You can use "wine regedit" to modify the variables manually to the option 3 values.

    Can also confirm everything is working fine on wine-3.0 / macOS 10.3.13
