When you’ve updated it, do we just download it again from scoring notes and reinstall?
Yes, once an update is available, all registered users will be notified of the update and you can download it from your Notation Central account, and install the new font on your computer to replace the older version.

By the way: Enthusiastic shoutout to Serif and their Affinity graphics suite (in this case, Affinity Designer, but Affinity Photo is just as great). Lots of SVG tweaking required behind the scenes, and it’s just a breeze with Designer…

Sì, ho regolato a 18 il corpo del font e poi ho regolato anche la posizione in altezza.
…è semplicemente un font quindi puoi adoperarlo tutto dove ci sia bisogno di inserire un testo. Funziona ovunque: io lo adopero molto con Page (Mac) soprattutto per scrivere molto testo con molti esempi musicali. Prima dovevo scrivere l’esempio musicale con Dorico o MuseScore, fare il png e poi importare nel software di testo; ora, per questo tipo di lavoro faccio a meno dei software di musica sopra citati.
…naturalmente è importante scaricare tutti e 2 i Pdf dove per ogni esempio musicale c’è la sequenza di caratteri da digitare per ottenere il risultato.
Naturalmente tutti i font di Notation Central sono utilissimi per scrivere libri di didattica musicale adoperando solamente un software di testo.
Detto questo, vorrei tanto che Dorico potesse fare a meno di questi font…
Speriamo nelle prossime versioni.
Buona Musica a tutti.
I’m sorry, but my Italian simply isn’t good enough for this.
Google Translate, Michel. 
Yes, I adjusted the font body to 18 and then adjusted the height position as well.

… It’s just a font so you can use it all where you need to insert text. It works everywhere: I use it a lot with Page (Mac) especially for writing a lot of text with many musical examples. First I had to write the musical example with Dorico or MuseScore, make the png and then import the text into the software; now, for this type of work I do without the music software mentioned above.

… of course it is important to download all 2 PDFs where for each musical example there is the sequence of characters to type to obtain the result.
Of course, all Notation Central fonts are very useful for writing music teaching books using only text software.
Having said that, I really wish Dorico could do without these fonts …
We hope in the next versions.
Good Music to all.

personal preference. I don’t like using google translate because it gets subtle nuances wrong quite often.
Thanks a lot! Amazing for addressing those suggestions so fast!
I’ve used the weekend to get acquainted with contextual alternates and chained content positioning, and now we have open/closed playing techniques.
They work with any note or notehead and will move out of the way if the notehead or stem protrude beyond the staff lines. o and + give you the symbols underneath the staff, whereas O and = or * (Shift-+ on English/German/French keyboards) give you the symbols on top of the staff.
Parenthesized noteheads are a bit more work (because I’ll need many different positioning rules depending on pitch, notehead type and accidentals), but are most certainly possible.

Google Translate makes well, but my tongue is not so happy since six years.

Bought it as soon as I received the mail from Notation Central !
This (and MusGlyphs as well) is gonna make my life so much easier for the app I’m developing, thanks a lot !
I wonder, as I don’t have all ranges for all instruments in mind, if it could be useful/doable to add 8va/8vb indications ?
For individual notes, it shouldn’t be difficult. But if you want an 8va indicator that extends across several notes… that might be tricky. Probably not impossible, though.
For some reason the notes below the middle line don’t show here in MS Word 2019 (Windows 10)
“Kerning for fonts” and “Use contextual alternates” are checked and Ligatures are set to “All”
The preview looks correctly, but then all symbols starting with a minus key are missing. What might be the reason?
I’m not sure, I see this sometimes if I install the font while Word is still running - the font is detected but somehow not loaded correctly. Usually, closing all Word windows and reopening fixes the problem. If that doesn’t work, maybe a reboot? As you noted, the preview window shows the correct glyphs in your screenshot, so I does look like Word is confused 
I did a reboot, but to no avail. In Dorico everything is fine, the problem is only with Word. I’ll keep trying. Thanks for your help and this great tool.
