SS-2 What’s in the SMuFL Fonts?

There are somewhere between 2000-3000 characters in the new “Finale Maestro” SMuFL font! In this video, I will give you a quick tour (as quick as I can!) of everything that’s in that font and readily available to you. If you need to be able to type characters (for scripts), you’ll have to use Unicode Hex Input, so I’ll demonstrate how to set up your Mac to be able to do that (13:06). I’ll also show you how to quickly switch between SMuFL fonts including 3rd-party SMuFL fonts which will now load directly into Finale (17:35). And finally, I’ll give you a look at the handwritten fonts in Finale including a new one that comes with Finale 27 called “Finale Ash” (20:44).
