Hi Aaron,
Yes, I see what you mean: the larger the intervals get, the more the number
seems to pull away from the bracket; a black eye for Enhanced
Tuplets. However, if you are doing a piece with mostly linear tuplet
passages, I think things will look fairly reasonable, with less fussing

Andrew,
Be careful with FontBook -- before you do anything, check out the
Preferences and make sure you check Always copy font files when
installing. One thing you definitely *don't* want is for your fonts
