-====Step 3 - If NeoOffice crashes when you select the Format > Cells menu item, try these steps====+
-There is a font handling bug that Apple created in OS X El Capitan. This Apple bug can cause NeoOffice to crash when NeoOffice tries to draw text using the <tt>Arial Unicode MS</tt> font. To stop the crashing, disable the <tt>Arial Unicode MS</tt> font using the following steps:+
-* In the Finder, go to the <tt>/Applications</tt> folder and launch the <tt>Font Book</tt> application+
-* In the <tt>Font Book</tt> application window, go to the middle column and select the <tt>Arial Unicode MS</tt> font+

-====Step 5 - If NeoOffice displays question marks or boxes instead of text, try these steps====+
-Find and remove any fonts that are incompatible with OS X El Capitan using the following steps:+

-* In the <tt>Font Book</tt> application window, click on a font in the middle column, select the <tt>Edit > Select All</tt> menu item, and then select the File > Validate Fonts menu item+
-* In the Font Validation window that appears, select any fonts that that are marked in red or yellow and press the {{button|Remove Checked}} button+
- +
-If NeoOffice still displays question marks or boxes instead of text after doing the above steps, change the font to one of Apple's fonts that can display the language of your text using the following steps:+
-* Select some text in the document that displays as question marks or boxes+
-* Right-click or Control-click on the selected text+
-* In the popup menu that appears, select the <tt>Font</tt> menu item, and then select one of the following fonts:+
