Stem, Flag and Beam don't match with head

Dorico
1

Dear experienced users,

I don’t even know, if I am right here. Did anyone see something like this before?

I have no idea if this problem is based in Dorico or in the pdf-maker. I tried to reproduce these mismatching Stems, Flags and Beams. In Dorico it is not visible. If I export the music as pdf it still not visible, but as soon as I make a page-layout via InDesign and export the final file as x:3 pdf for the printer this happens sometimes.

What is it and how can I avoid it?

Thank you in advance,

Dietrich

Dietrich,
are you using the standard Bravura font in Dorico?
How are you exporting to pdf? Are you using Dorico’s Print Mode->Graphics?

This can sometimes occur when using other fonts than Bravura: the fix is to re-apply the Music Font. (Deselect the options to use the font’s engraving options and text fonts to avoid changing anything else.)

Ah, okay. Yes I am using November 2. But changing to Bravura is no option, I need the music for publishing.

Yes I use the onboard export as graphics of Dorico. So probably I have to avoid InDesign and must try to find the settings I need for my pdf in Dorico.

No: Select November 2 from the Music Font dialog again.

Thank you, that sounds good, I will try.

But on the other hand, I just realised: There are 80 pages in that score and only in one system of one page this problem occurs. There must be something else I did wrong on this page. I am still a beginner with Dorico, I am using it almost daily but only since one year, since the end of Finale. So I suppose that I messed around with something…
