Re: [Finale] font question part 2
Dwight - What other encoding choices are offered in FontXChange? I'm not sure the Adobe encoding is the best choice.

A few versions back Finale changed things so that only specific font encodings worked. This had the consequence that some fonts (e.g. the Opus families) no longer showed up in Finale. You will need to get TypeTool or something like that to encode it using Mac, or using trial and error to find one that works. Matthew With your advice I was able to get the converted font to work (both TrueType and OpenType) on the Mac side (using Adobe Standard Encoding) using the same FontXChange program - but I'm still stuck on the Windows side. I have a pretty rudimentary setup on the Windows side (I use XP Pro Parallels on my MacPro). The converted fonts show up OK in Windows itself but not in the 2010 Finale Reader. Here are the options: Leave Encoding Unchanged Automatically Choose Best Encoding Adobe Standard Encoding Macintosh Standard Encoding (MacRoman) Windows Standard Encoding (ANSI) Unicode Encoding (ISO 10646-1) and 4 Latin encodings that I'm sure won't work for this... The TrueType and OpenType fonts I created that work show up as different fonts from the original on the Mac side. On the Windows side I get all sorts of encoding errors... -- \/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/ Dwight Thomas - Principal Timpani - Omaha Symphony Macintosh Finale Consultant - DAPrint Music Preparation/Publishing e-mail address - dat...@cox.net web pages at http://members.cox.net/datimp/ FAX number (402) 451-1139 \/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/ ___ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale

Yup didn't intend to trim that much. Mea culpa. On Oct 23, 2009, at 7:40 PM, David W. Fenton wrote: On 23 Oct 2009 at 18:55, Allen Fisher wrote: On Oct 23, 2009, at 10:36 AM, David W.

I do wish you'd quoted more carefully. What I actually wrote was: If I'm right that the Finale QA team is the same team that provides tech support, I doubt that you trimmed that intentionally, but I don't like being misquoted here, as it implies I said something I didn't. -- David W.
