I installed Geneva directly into the MacDraw application file by launching
Font/DA Mover with the Option Key depressed. This obscure Font/DA Mover
feature allows you to install any font in any file's  resource fork.
Then I transferred Geneva from "System" to "MacDraw". Now Geneva is up
there at the top of the list.
