  13. In regard to System font preferences breaking Diagram! 1.1, J.B.

  15. > In Preferences, set your system and application fonts to  
  16. "Helvetica Medium 12  
  17. > point" and your Bold system font to "Helvetica Bold 12 point" and  
  18. Diagram!  
  19. > should work okay.  Simply put, using any other fonts than what  
  20. 2.x used for any  
  21. > of the functions settable in Preferences 3.0 will make Diagram!  
  22. crash.  
  23.  
  24. A more surgical way to fix this problem is to type the following at  
  25. a command line:
  26.  
  27.     dwrite Diagram NXSystemFonts Helvetica\;Helvetica
  28.  
  29. This will allow you to use the Preferences app to set your system  
  30. fonts without effecting Diagram!
