In Default Fonts, make sure the chord suffix font is set to JazzCord, 
not JazzText. The sharp symbol is under Shift-3, which LOOKS like a 
sharp in JazzText, but isn't really - it's a number sign. It will 
look better in JazzCord. This incorrect setting was a common problem 
with certain Jazz Default files sent out by Coda.

You will also find triangles in the JazzCord font. The JazzFont 
default file should have them included in the library; as creating 
them ALL from scratch is a big job.
