Have you looked at the Swing Font set from Sigler Music (
www.jazzfont.com )?

It's from the same guy who did the Jazz Font and I find it far superior
to the Jazz Font set included with Finale.

Includes the same characters as Jazz but less stylized.

The problems with the JazzFont (especially JazzCord and JazzText) are the same as those with Swing, except the characters look a little finer in Swing. The same missing glyphs, the same badly-formed articulations and letters, the same lack of lower-case letters, the same ridiculous hoops to jump through to come close to a legible and complete chord suffix set.

I wish someone would do with JazzCord what Bill Sinclair did with his ChordSuf font, in fact, I suggested it to John Clevenger.
