Hi Klaus, I think I have a solution for you if you can live with spending about $100. I actually have that same printer (which still works, but has recently finally been demoted to backup status). You're right, it is a great printer. Anyway, I decided as a matter of principal that I didn't want

HI Doug, We discussed this a while back, and I think the conclusion was that there are definitely some anomalies with chord suffixes. I'm sorry I don't know about 2001d, but maybe something out of Fin2003a will help. Here's how I change the chord font in 2003a: options: document options: fonts:

Hi Ole and Crystal, I had some time today to experiment with the chord suffixes, and have unfortunately figured out that I was wrong, and both of you are right. Change Chord Suffixes does not necessarily change the whole suffix. It changes only the Ariel fonts. I just didn't make a big enough ch

Ole, Here's one more shot in the dark: Did you use the use the m7(b5) (and other suffix's) that were provided by Finale, or did you make your own? I used the ones provided by Finale. I can't imagine why that would matter, but its the only other thing I can think of that might be different. Lar

Earlier this week I used "Change Chord Suffix" in the Chord Menu to change the chord suffix fonts in several pages of music and it worked just fine. (There were some pretty long suffix's on some of the chords, too!) Are you talking about something different than this? If not, I wonder why it wor
