was trying to use Subito's service for printing, made pdfs of his orchestral
scores.  They came back without instrument names, and with all 3-slash
tremolos missing the middle slash.


You're probably aware of this but MM's Maestro fonts of the last couple of releases (FinMac2k6 and FinMac2k7) have faulty overlaid glyphs in the upper slash of the double and the middle slash of the triple slash trem that produce an outline on printout. See MakeMusic forum post  of 8/22/2006: http://forum.makemusic.com/default.aspx?f=6&m=160351

For all of you who are still experiencing printing problems with the double and triple tremolo slashes, if you open up the font in Fontographer or TypeTool and examine the two characters, you will discover that the problem is a duplicate slash directly on top of the middle slash for the 3 slash tremolo and the top slash of the double one. Delete these and the characters will print correctly. I reported this nearly two years ago on this forum. I can't believe that this one minute fix has not been corrected yet.

Don't know for certain whether this applies only to Mac or both. I've had to fix my Mac font.
