Re: Text fonts in musical scores
Indeed a hard task. For your questions: I believe it is very much defined by score type, style, editor, publisher. Maybe you should include only the fonts you can get license for free, so that anyone can benefit. Many of these fonts are very expensive. Personally, choosing fonts in music scores is t...

Re: Dorico sample.
For my eyes, Dorico default-output looks very unbalanced. Not sure exactly why, but there is the font issue. Bravura is terribly unbalanced font, and also the combination of fonts are far from perfect. The half note-head has less power than the black note-head, for example. Furthermore, there is ten...

Re: Repeat and cresecendo
Along the lines of David Ward's suggestion: Free repeat with cresc..jpg Hm John, that is also quite interesting, the only problem is that I need to reach p at the end of that repeat, not in the next measure. I think that the language barierre is the most problematic. Usin David's ‘repeat ad lib thr...

Repeat and cresecendo
I have one measure to repeat unspecified number of times but in order to get from pppp to p. How to notate it?
If I put repeat symbol and crescendo, it can be understood as numerous times crescendo every time the repetition begins.

At my screen FSNSM is clearly more visible even from the longer distance, and at the same time takes less space. What are your opinions?

Re: Composers va Engravers: A Controversial Note
For me Cb looks as the double diminished 7-chord, very common in the Baroque/Classic with inversions:

Re: Unorthodox stem direction
While I agree with you qanunji concerning the melism and slurs, the purpose of notation is communication. And since you communicate in so called the Western style, the way of notation should be in accordance to its rules. I have been working with Balkan folklore music and as well the Byzantine chant...

Re: Unorthodox stem direction
I think it is fine, as well. Follow tisimst's recommendation on sluring, definitely.
