General Discussion / Symbols in lyric text
I sing in a choir.  For individual practice, I enter our music into Noteworthy Composer and distribute it to the choir members for use in the viewer.  We are presently working on a work in French.  I would like to enter on a second line of lyrics, a pronunciation guide using the International Phonetic Alphabet.  I found a true type font for the IPA.  I used MS Word to enter the pronunciation guide.  In Noteworthy Composer, I assigned the appropriate Font to the Staff Lyric.  I then pasted the text from the Word document into the Lyrics word processor.  When the text is first put into the Lyrics, all the symbols appear.  When I hit OK to enter the Lyrics into the music, most of the symbols are represented by "?".  In other words, the symbols have been lost.

Any help with my problem?

General Discussion / Slurs
I just installed Version 2.5.4.  I have found if I enter a note with a slur, the slur does not turn off for the following notes.  This is different from previous versions in which I had to turn on the slur for each note.  Is this a bug in 2.5.4 or is there a way to make the program work similar to previous versions?

General Discussion / Equivalent Notes
I am notating a choral work.  A second section of the work changes the time signature from 4/4 to 3/4.  I want to add a notation above the top system showing the equivalent notes -- whole note = dotted half note -- using the actual note symbols.  I would appreciate any suggestions or help.
