Re: Comparison of music text fonts
To my eye, the original Roman and Italic could do with closing up a little.

Re: Sebastian SMuFL font
And the font is installed in your system? Does it show in other apps? (The font is Finale-compatible, too.)
I've reinstalled it here, and it seems fine. You may need to clear your font cache.

Re: NorMusicSMFL font for DORICO (still under developement)
The python scripts don't work for me on FontLab 7: are you running them on FL5?

Re: Sebastian SMuFL font
Works here. What platform are you on? Have you restarted Dorico? You may even have to restart on Windows, I believe.

What app are you using to make the fonts, and the metadata.json file?

Sebastian SMuFL font
OK, I think I've brought this font to some kind of working order. There are now 828 glyphs, so enough to cope with a range of music. I'd say the essential character of the font is for clear numerals and alphabet-based symbols: dynamics, C, etc. It's not as heavy as Bravura, but not as washed out as ...

Re: Dorico/Lilypond/SCORE?
None of these apps are doing something you don't want, while many of notation software does exactly that, what you don't want, or what is incorrect.

Re: Dorico/Lilypond/SCORE?
How big are the slices? If I wanted a 34-foot high clef, would it be possible to set the slice size to be small enough? Having written quite a few tools for manipulating SCORE files, and therefore being pretty familiar with a lot of the internal workings, I did make a start on a sort of desktop clon...
