Maestro G Clef
Yes, nicely done Knut! Whenever I need to do this (and I have done it many times), I never worry about vectorizing the actual bitmap at all. In Inkscape, I import the bitmap as an embedded image, lock that layer, and then manually add the outline curves on another layer. These curves I then import i...

Re: Espressivo font
Agreed. I like this one very much, but I have wondered if it looks too old-fashioned for most modern users.

Re: Staff Pad
I have a general question to all of you: don't you think, that this app. works rather slow compared to all known software? Every one can make an attempt to input the same text while measuring the time with chronometer. ... I have no any experience with Lolypond, but I am pretty sure that our friend...

Re: E. Gould and the Double-staffed Multi-measure Rest
Doing this in LilyPond is pretty straightforward. What does a triple/quadruple/+ staff MMR look like? Does it do the same kind of thing by putting the numeral between each set of staves?

Re: [MuseScore] Kerning of accidentals
How does Lilypond handle this with other fonts than the default. Does it kern each type of accidental by a set amoun, or does it analyze the shape in any way? It looks like it actually solves a horizontal skyline problem, in combination with some basic assumptions (e.g., accidentals an octave away ...

Re: [MuseScore] Kerning of accidentals
And just for the record, LilyPond also kerns accidentals (always has,even before SMuFL was born), though it appears to not be quite as tight as the MS one above:

Re: Font collections
Here's an interesting stylistic font set from Mark Adler that he posted for free today on the Finale Blog ( http://www.finalemusic.com/blog/a-free-finale-music-font/ ). It comes with some holiday designs for clefs, noteheads, and rehearsal marks. Just thought it was an interesting idea. FinaleMisc-M...

Re: fonts.openlilylib.org in Finale
tisimst, is it possible and in which way to use your fonts in Finale 2014? Absolutely! I've been meaning to take this on for quite a while now (mostly because of the powerful Python scripting integration with FontForge). The only thing that I really need help with is the development of Finale's FAN...

In effect, this changes the accidental kerning from the left group to the right one (this is taken from the SMuFL manual):
