These fonts
are a unique and useful collection with many
features.
**NOTE: Jazz Font Set includes all 5 fonts
listed below. This includes Jazz, JazzText,
JazzText Extended, JazzCord and JazzPerc
fonts.
(All 5 fonts below are included
if you purchase the Jazz Font Set. Swing Fonts
contain all of the same characters as Jazz Fonts, and
are sold seperately).
- Jazz:
This is the MUSIC font. It contains all
the characters needed for music notation, such as note
heads, accidentals, articulations, and more.
- JazzText:
The selection of
characters makes this font special. You can use
these brackets for enclosures, such as boxes for
rehearsal letters or numbers. You can also make
brackets of any
text expression. See the character
maps for your choices of brackets and their
keystrokes.
- JazzText
Extended: This font is the latest
addition to the Jazz Font Set and is identical to
the JazzText font, only instead of the bracket
characters, in contains the extended characters that
are used in text containg international letters such
as:
- JazzCord: This is the
CHORD SUFFIX font. It contains
characters that make up entire chord suffixes as well
as the letters used to denote the chord itself. Time
has been taken to piece all of the suffixes together -
such as
- within the characters of the font itself in order to
give them a more hand written look. However, in case
you desire to create your own suffixes, I have broken
them down into smaller pieces
.
These suffixes are also intelligent in that they are
fully transposable in Finale just like your own chord
suffixes. You can load the libraries, Jazz Chords
and Jazz
Chords 2 which have all of the suffixes,
or you can create your own libraries. Note that both
libraries are the same except for the way the major
and minor symbols are notated. In the first library,
major is notated with a triangle and minor with a
dash. In the second library, major is written as MA
and minor is MI. Choose a library based on your
preference. *TIP* Be sure to
select JazzCord as your chord symbol and chord
accidental font. If you don't, Finale will display the
accidentals incorrectly.
- JazzPerc:
Based on the percussion font that accompanies
Finale. All of the characters are present, but with
the look of the Jazz Font Set.
