This can be both under Links and Type - subforum. But I believe many are looking for fonts here, so:

I welcome it back!!
Abraham Lee has created a great number of fantastic looking fonts, first for LilyPond for free and now commercially available.
The fonts are provided with very good examples. Great job, tisimst!
A question: are there provided Finale and Sibelius versions (click-and-work)?

(I see now; so far only for LilyPond).
Re: Music Type Foundry - new fonts!
Thanks, OCTO! I haven't officially announced the site (yet), but hope to very soon when I have files working for BOTH Finale and Sibelius in as close to plug-and-play as I am able. They are in the works and I'm very close to being done.OCTO wrote:This can be both under Links and Type - subforum. But I believe many are looking for fonts here, so:

Re: Music Type Foundry - new fonts!
Great to hear, tisimst!
I would be more than happy to use many of them!
If I might as you, will they be mapped for Finale as the Maestro table? Or it will be SMULF so that a plug-in "translates" symbols from to another?
If you need any help, I am, we are here!

Re: Music Type Foundry - new fonts!
Excellent! I will be creating a variant that is mapped like Maestro and another that is mapped for SMuFL, so Finale users won't need to do anything special.OCTO wrote:Great to hear, tisimst!

Re: Music Type Foundry - new fonts!
This is fabulous news!
Are these new fonts "optically scaled" like Emmentaler?

I do not have the optically scaled variants in this particular release. However, I fully intend to have them in each font's next major release! No time-frame at the moment I can give you, though, for when that will happen. I'm hoping to begin distributing those starting in Q4 2016, but we shall see.DatOrganistTho wrote:Are these new fonts "optically scaled" like Emmentaler?

Re: Music Type Foundry - new fonts!
Just thought I'd mention that, as of today, seven of my fonts are now compatible with Finale 2014 (or newer):
- MTF-Arnold
- MTF-Beethoven
- MTF-Cadence
- MTF-Gutenberg1939
- MTF-Haydn
- MTF-Ross
- MTF-Scorlatti
I also think I should mention that MTF-Cadence has already been released for Dorico (via the SMuFL standard).
Happy Q4 2016!!
