Font generation issue on non-english Windows localizations

Description

There is an issue with font generation (Arial Bold) and probably others which affects non-enlish Windows localizations. We need to add the fonts to the ui/common/cache folder for a temporary fix. Although, we need a permanent fix.

The only permanent fix for this would be to use Open Source fonts as defaults and include them into the developer install so that the caching can be done as needed. DejaVu may be an option but the licensing needs to be carefully considered. There may be other alternative fonts but DejaVu is the first to come to mind.

Packaging cached fonts is not as bad as it seems providing the steps to do so are clearly documented somewhere and developers are appropriately notified during tutorials and etc.
