We can't even decide on whether auto-update-layout should be turned on or off by default when Finale installs. How do you expect us to decide on what "proper computer fonts for music" are?

Actually, I think we do agree about the former. Only two of us voiced our preference for working with auto-update-layout, and we both stated explicitly that we agree that it makes perfect sense for it to be ON by default.

P.S. Since a few here were interested, I asked my font geek friend about those context-dependent fonts I mentioned. He says he's planning to write an article on them soon, so suggests I wait a few days. Along the way, he pointed out to me that these fonts only do their trick if the application is set up to support them, which only a few applications do so far. I think it's a safe bet that Finale will not be among the first to get on board.
