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. ...

Re: Free music fonts
BTW, how do you get the dashed boundaries shown with text expressions ? Is that MacOS only ?

Re: Free music fonts
Hm, weird. On Windows it's definitely the "f" height. Here is a screencam video where I create an "f" expression in Maestro from scratch and it immediately gets the big border from the font's height. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O5EVe3Jx84I Does the same happen on your system ...

Re: Free music fonts
Thanks, Octo, for the clarifications. >I have some knowledge about OTF and TTF difference, however how it impacts just Finale is primary to me to know. The only impact I know is that my PDF printer (Foxit PDF) sometimes refuses to print document with OTF fonts in Finale. And OTF looks much (!) smoot...

Re: Free music fonts
Hi Octo, thanks for your hints. Here are my comments. >If I share my Finale documents on OS X with a user on Windows, shall we both use OTF? Good question! I should add it to the troubleshooting section. If you want to go cross-platform with the fonts, you should follow section 5) of the FAQ, i.e. &...
