Thanks for the feedback on the letter 'd'. You are the first person to describe it as confusing. Actually I designed it carefully, together with the other ciphers, so that each cipher would be distinctive - at least in my eyes. One of the considerations was that it should be self-contained between staff lines, thus eliminating the need to have more than one version of it in order to avoid clashes with other ciphers on adjacent staff lines.
I can use any font, so one-off editions could be produced. What shape of ciphers would you prefer? How would you make the tail more prominent without introducing visual noise?
