Thank you, John for this work. I followed your method exactly. I am on
Windows XP Home and Finale2004b.r1 I opened your MUS file in Finale and
exported it as EPS.

In Photoshop Elements the text blocks of my version of singl001.EPS are fine
and the music characters are wrong just like the ones in your screen shot.

My EPS export also had 13 instances of a font to replace. In my case it was
called TTC7B00 not TT1CAB00. For example:

/TTC7B00 ff 85.416664 scf stf
395.9573 2635.563 elw m
(&) t

After I replaced these with Maestro, the file opened in Photoshop Elements
with all of the Maestro characters correct (the good news). However the text
blocks had been turned to Courier (the bad news).

I then made 13 files, one for each substitution of TTC7B00, then several
replacing some but not others. Several of these showed up as expected with
one music character being fixed but not the others. However, I was unable to
find a combination of font replacements that did NOT result in Courier being
substituted for Arial (actually Helvetica in the EPS listing) and
Times-Roman even though I never substituted those fonts, only TTC7B00.

As far as I can tell ANY substitution of one or more instances of Maestro
for TTC7B00 somehow messed up Arial and Times.

Any idea what this means?
