Start menu and taskbar fonts accuracy issues in Japanese and Korean msstyles on the Extras folders

[HendrikMalherbe]

I'm not sure if you guys care at all since not many people even notice these (or use this in Japanese or Korean at all), but the msstyles in the extras folders hardcode, it would seem, the fonts utilized in the taskbar and start menu, here's how Korean is supposed to look like vs how it looks with the included msstyles:

And this is also not the right font

it's supposed to be like this, it uses Gulim font

If not look into it please at least tell me where to find the real Windows XP metrics and where to put them on the msstyles included in this because they're not ordered well at all in the msstyles

Yes. As a matter of fact, it's the same for the real XP msstyles. The binaries differ per different language releases (although, if I recall correctly, the font changes are stored in the string table, just like MUI-based localisation of themes in Vista and later)

So, I would just go over that list and change the fonts to match. Some metrics also differ, but I think it's the same story. I made these changes for my personal Japanese theme.

Thank you for replying. I did change some fonts to varying degrees of success and it seems i got an acceptable results now, i never noticed how Korean and Japanese start button have a 2/1px margin below it but it seems they do on real XP too, in any case thank you for the reply and your work, have a great day.
