I'd like to typeset some jazz pieces. As a start to making it look like a real fake book, I'd like to do the text in the jazz text font, for which I've located and installed a true type version from the file JazzText_Regular.ttf. I've confirmed that the font works in MS Word 2010. I've also confirmed that by blindly running ttf2pfb, ttf2afm, and ttf2tfm, I can generate files with the expected suffixes. I haven't been bold or patient enough to go any further, so whether they work in TeX or not is anyone's guess. So my questions are
1. Does anyone already have jazz fonts that work in TeX? 2. Is anyone aware of how to get jazz font versions of special music symbols such as clefs and the flat symbol (not included in JazzText_Regular.ttf)? 3. If no to 1 & 2, does anyone have any idea whether the path I initiated, or any other, starting with the .ttf, can lead to usable TeX fonts, and if so, what exactly are the proper steps? --Don Simons ------------------------------- [email protected] mailing list If you want to unsubscribe or look at the archives, go to http://tug.org/mailman/listinfo/tex-music
