Re: Music Type Foundry - new fonts!

That is wonderful.... But, some weeks ago Jan A released these fonts for free. Now, how was it possible? Did your old license allowed this? What is the difference? Also, are your fonts fully and completely compatible between Win and OS X in 2014.5? That is very important for those (me) who work with...

Re: Software recognition, by eye

I have plenty of ABRSM books at home (Theory).
For me it looks like manually engraved music. It is already 30-40 years old.
I might be wrong, but inconistency in slur shapes and thickness, and position of accidentals seems for me to be manual editing. Though I am not sure if there are new editions.

Re: Colored sheet music

I would avoid blue score. It is more difficult to read. Just music is black, everything else blue seems to be good. Or if you really need blue, you can take darker variant (as Knut suggested), but I guess it must be in accordance with the color of the (Jewish) flag, that would not be appropriate...(...

Re: Best notation for 'out of tune' natural harmonics?

If they go more toward the ponticello, maybe even more harmonics can be produced. I would use just circles, and approximate notation (regular). Maybe also accidentals in parenthesis as narrow down or narrow up. How much - no need to make it so in detal, anyway you cannot play other harmonics between...
