use the MacDraw II Options file and the Main Dictionary file, they
must reside either in the same location as the MacDraw II application

don't replace it with the one in the floppy.

Compatibility
Architecture: 68k
Requires Macintosh Plus, Macintosh SE or Macintosh II families
Two 800k drives (hard disk recommended)
System Software 6.0 or later recommended
Claris included a printed "Important Update" document with MacDraw II
1.1v1 (which most likely also applies to 1.1v2) which recommends use
of System 6.0 & Finder 6.1. The document says System 4.3 & Finder 6.0
and System 4.2 & Finder 6.0 will work but are NOT recommended because
there may be problems while zooming and when working on large and
complex objects. System 4.1 & Finder 5.5 (and earlier) are not
supported at all.
