Where
are the fonts installed?
The Finale Installer automatically installs
the Maestro, Maestro Wide, Maestro Percussion, Petrucci, Tamburo, Broadway Copyist, Jazz,
and Engraver Fonts TrueTypes directly into your Fonts folder located in
your Windows folderLibrary/Fonts folder. The PostScript fonts are installed
in a folder called PS fonts, located on your root directory (usually c:\).
If, when you open Finale, large text symbols like &
and Ï appear
instead of clefs and notes, Windows is unable to locate the Maestro font. You can restore your music fonts by doing the following:
- Close Finale.
- Go to www.finalemusic.com/store/search.aspx and type "Font Pack" in the Download Name text box.
- Follow the on-screen instructions to download and install the font pack for your operating system.
- Restart Finale.
