Dear Finale List Members:
I was just informed by one of my ChordSymbol users, in inquiring about my
plans to reengineer this product into a far more powerful and versatile tool,
that some sort of message had been posted on the MakeMusic web site asking
about how to contact me. Do any of
Greetings, list. I've been out of the Finale world for awhile, but now that
I'm upgrading my ChordSymbol font, I'm wondering what the status of
Unicode support is. I see that it is not supported in Finale 2010. Will it be
added for Finale 2011?

The laborious task of creating TrueType versions of the various ranges of
our ChordSymbol 2 Unicode fonts specifically for use with Finale is finally
complete! So the unprecedented chord symbol entry functionality of

Hello fellow Finale listers. Someone mentioned that people on the Finale
site are trying to find me to learn if there has been an update to my old,
popular CSTimes music-analysis text font. There has, in the form of
ChordSymbol 2, which includes a text font that replicates the functionality
Dear Finale and Sibelius Listers:
Just a heads-up that I will soon commence development of JazzSymbol, a
variant of my ChordSymbol Unicode font tailored specifically to commercial
music. Based on the less formal-looking Arial Narrow, JazzSymbol will provide
commercial musicians with any

Hey folks. Let me respond to several points raised here regarding my
impending development of JazzSymbol.
First, although my main development is in Unicode, I have templates for c
ross-platform TrueType fonts usable with Finale until MakeMusic can make
Finale Unicode-compliant. So I will

Hey folks. Just a heads-up that JazzSymbol, the less-formal looking variant
of the extensive commercial range (over 1000 symbols) from ChordSymbol,
will be released as a separate, dedicated product by early July.
Like ChordSymbol, JazzSymbol will be available in both Unicode and TrueType

useful for this purpose? That is, limited versions that students
Thanks for the feedback, folks. I understand that business realities may
preclude such a major redesign. But if MakeMusic can do it soon, it would be
