The default fonts aren't located in MacDraw itself.  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.
