4.0: It is likely that the ARIAL font has been lost or corrupted. Many of ClipMate’s dialog boxes use the Arial font (not Arial Black or Arial Narrow – just plain Arial). Restore the font from your Windows95 System CD. Or, on some systems, there is a font collision with programs written in Delphi. Nobody seems to know why, but it affects about 1% of machines. There is no fix for 4.0, but… 4.2: You can pick a font to use, in the event that the default font won’t display. You can pick the font in the User Preferences dialog (from the Config menu). It’s on the “Advanced” tab, which is the 3rd one on that dialog. Since you can’t see what it looks like, we have reproduced it for you here. Note: This is a handy way for Asian users to have Asian fonts throughout ClipMate. Set it to a common system font in your country.
