Symptoms

Assume that an application on a computer that is running Windows 7 uses the GetGlyphOutline() function to retrieve the outlines or bitmaps for Japanese characters. In this situation, the function incorrectly returns glyphs from the GulimChe font.

Note The expected behavior is that the function returns glyphs from the MS Gothic font.

    VersionProductMilestoneService branch
    6.1.760
    0.16xxx
    Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2RTMGDR
    6.1.760
    0.20xxx
    Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2RTMLDR
