Announcing OmniGraffle 4.1 release candidate 1 (including Pro)

[Joel Page]

The only fonts that OmniGraffle uses by default are Helvetica and  
Lucida Grande, which get specified simply by the use of Interface  
Builder. Mail used to have a huge problem with different versions of  
Helvetica installed, although I'm not aware of similar issues with  
OmniGraffle, it was just guesswork on my part given the backtraces in  
the crash report.

I've had one other user report the same crash, so I'll file this to  
see if the engineering team can shed any light.
