Problem conclusion

• Style sheets (.css files) in BPMJViewPalette.jar (installed in
  <WAS_HOME>/BPM/Lombardi/lib) specified "Arial-bold-<font
  size>" as the font.  Changing the font to "Dislog-bold-<font
  size>" resolved the issue.
  
  An interim fix for Version 7.5.1 is published in Fix Central.
