Er, Finale doesn't do Unicode, so what use would that be in Finale? And, of course, you'd still have to have a font that had that character defined. That is, just because the Unicode standard allocates a slot for a particular glyph doesn't mean that every font implements every glyph (if you think about it, you'd realize that would be silly -- it would require 65K-odd glyphs defined in every font). It also seems peculiar to me that so many people would suggest add-on fonts when one of the fonts included with Finale since at least Finale 3.x (i.e., Toccatta) includes the requested glyph, unless, of course, the add-on font is superior to Toccatta (so far as I recall, nobody has suggested that, but it could still be true). Doesn't everyone examine the fonts that come with Finale for useful items? -- David W.
