I asked Microsoft through Feedback Hub for some API to handle fonts as
organized as Control Panel\Fonts organize them on Windows (just as the bug
reporter said) and their response was:

"Thanks for the feedback. EnumFontFamiliesEx does enumerate the variants - have
you looked at that?  Empty facename gets the variants, then you can call it
again with the facename you want more info about."
"feedback-hub:?contextid=950&feedbackid=d5881e15-3575-4c17-84c9-5e0d733fae7a&form=1&src=1"

I searched this API and found it has two versions (EnumFontFamiliesExA and
EnumFontFamiliesExW) at
"https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/api/wingdi/nf-wingdi-enumfontfamiliesexw"
and
"https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/api/wingdi/nf-wingdi-enumfontfamiliesexa".

Also, I want to say that the MSDN page moved to
"https://docs.microsoft.com/pt-br/windows/win32/directwrite/introducing-directwrite",
just in case the redirection stops working one day.
