[G4] System Font

[Jay E. Krauss, Jr.]

In System Preferences, there is a International 
preference, where one can chose primary language 
and under the Input Menu option, can chose which 
keyboard layout(s) one wishes to use. It might be 
helpful to check and make sure a non-US keyboard 
layout has been checked.
Don't know if this would effect the system font; 
there is a program called Tinkertool (free 
download) which allows one to change System fonts 
(along with a number of other options). The usual 
OS X system font is LucindaGrande.
