Hello, I have exchanged a few emails with Mac Support about speed problems in FinMac 2004. My complaints have to do with the miserable hesitation when editing SmartShapes or when editing using Special Tools. Their suggestion was that I turn off auto smart word extensions in lyrics, turn off

If you have a font editor for OS X it's actually very easy to do this yourself, I have to do this for some of my own fonts as well. Johannes -- Any recommendations for one? Is there an upgrade for Fontographer? -- Andrew Stiller Kallisti Music Press http://home.netcom.com/~kallisti/

Alrighty...I have a question for the masses who are having fun with 2004 and Panther (though I'm sure folks who are using Jaguar can help too)... I've downloaded the problem and everything looks fine so far - even prints beautifully - except I have problems with two fonts: Maestro and the

Maestro and the third-party font, November. Seems both of them aren't playing nice with my OSX. I know that Finale 2004 comes with updated fonts. So don't use old backup copies. Instead, I think you should delete all old Maestro fonts which are installed in OS X folders (/Library and possibly

On 22.01.2004 0:25 Uhr, Tobias Giesen wrote About November, I have no idea! It depends on the coding of the font. I suspect that November, like some of the 2k3 Finale fonts, use a font coding that is incompatible with OS X. It's not actually a big deal to update the font for OS X, but my guess

Of course if there were such a plug-in, that would mean that there were version compatibility, which we all know won't ever happen. Sibelius has added a new feature to version 3 that allows a file to be saved in version 2 format -- what is left out is simply the eye-candy that isn't supported

The way the underlying data structure is built changes with each release. So data used for one thing in an earlier version might be used for something else in a later version and something else entirely in an even later version. Not having to maintain backward compatibility makes the
