I just picked up this awesome looking Open Type font called Chartwell:

http://tktype.com/chartwell.php

I thought it would be a match made in heaven with Omnigraffle to set up simple graphs, spark lines, etc. but I can't for the life of me get it to display correctly. It works on a completely basic level, but it seems that values are not being connected right.

The Line Graph form ends up looking like a bar graph–no sloping line segments. Pie Chart displays each segment separately. The Bar graph only displays their default alphabet.

It works flawlessly in InDesign and a couple other apps.

I have "Common Ligatures" enabled in Font Palette -> Typography, and have played with Format -> Font -> Ligatures settings in the main menus. Disabled these reverts it to a plain alphabet completely.

Does Omnigraffle lack some specific support for Ligatures or OTT fonts that would prevent this from working? Anyone else tried Chartwell out?
