Jan, thank you for those links and the reminders about these fine fonts! It's great to have alternatives to the fonts that install with Finale, and especially for including the font annotation files! It certainly looks like you've done a very thorough job making these fonts work with Finale.

The main enhancements are stacked articulations and automatic stem length for tremolos. Beyond these I am hoping that Finale 26 will include further enhancements in dot releases. We'll see. On Wed, Oct 10, 2018 at 3:27 PM David H. Bailey wrote: > On 10/10/2018 3:54 PM, Craig Parmerlee wrote: >
