If you use Font/DA Mover on it, you'll find it really has no fonts at all. What you can try is to use ResEdit and modify your System file. That's where Chicago, Geneva and Monaco or stored. Font/DA Mover won't let you remove them from the System file but use ResEdit. Open up the system file (but make sure you've got a backup in case of any screw ups) and go to the FONT resource. Open FONT and Cut out Geneva or all of them if you want. Then paste in from a font file you want to use as your system fonts. Hope I've been of some help. - Tony adchen@phoenix.princeton.edu
