Re: RE: Re: Free music fonts

And did you set the Maestro "Space" font annotation boundaries manually or where they created automatically ? Because when I click on auto-annotate nothing visually appears. The "space" symbol has no glyph lines, so it doesn't know where to create reduced boundaries for the FAN....

I get them when I use the Selection tool and click once on it.

Re: Free music fonts

Interesting, that happens really with Maestro too.
But here are the frames of non-fixed Maestro space, and fixed maestro space.

The problem appears when already attached blank background is changed with a new font that has a very high space FAN.

Re: Free music fonts

The problem is in the space, as far as I could fix it.
PERHAPS Finale remembers the old "Enforce Minimum Width". When I fixed the space red box in FAN, it resulted OK.

I use OS X, Yosemite, Finale 2014.5.

Re: Free music fonts

Thanks. Could you please post a screenshot of an overlapping with white spots I noticed these overlapping spots on Windows, I think OTF version. Since I don't use regularly Win, I will report it once I find it. We can open another thread for this: Jan, would you like to create a textual music font, ...

Re: Beaming conventions

Actually, MuseScore 2 can do with less edits. I counted EACH item that has to be moved, yet these can be multiple selected and edited with ONE command.

What is the standard in Dorico, and how many editing steps is needed?

Re: Dorico

I was a beta tester—focused on SMuFL and non-Bravura fonts. That might partly explain why I didn't make the cut. :) I haven't been chosen for the Beta either, despite my several-years correspondence about the future application with Daniel. I have pretty high needs for my publications and perhaps I...

Re: Free music fonts

Hi Octo, thanks for your hints. Here are my comments. Thanks for that. I have some knowledge about OTF and TTF difference, however how it impacts just Finale is primary to me to know. Any further development in font compatibility for Finale across OSes would be good, since many work in team with di...
