Hey Jef, Burt,
Have you tried the SIL IPA fonts in FinMac2007 under OS X 10.4.x? The
characters show up correctly in FontBook, but when I try to use the
font for lyrics in Finale, the characters all show up as empty boxes.
Have you guys seen this? Any ideas about a workaround?
Cheers,

The other thing is that the composer wants all the notes beamed, and

barlines.

Try it for yourself (FinMac2007). If I create a group containing all
