- TeachText uses the default application font, normally Geneva. By changing
- the default application font, you change the font TeachText uses. If
- you're not a programmer, there is a cdev that will do this, but I can't
- remember its name. (Note: I know this works with the TeachText distributed
- a few years ago. It may not work with System 7's TeachText.)
