General Discussion / Writing a music book...
Hey all,

I'm planning on using NWC2 (which I already have a copy of) to create short phrases (often a single bar, or a couple of bars) between sections of text.

I had a couple of questions about a few things:

I know NWC2 doesn't yet have native support for odd subdivisions.  I'm aware that you can work around this with a tempo change and creating text, invisible time signatures, etc. for visual and playback purposes, which I'm not worried about.  My main concern is getting note spacing consistent as I intend to mix subdivisions, and I would prefer to have spacing for 16th quintuplets at least a slight bit smaller than 16th notes.  I'm not concerned about playback as I 'know' how what I'm writing sounds, so I'm only concerned with visual appearance.

I was planning on using CutePDF to 'print' to PDF format from which I can copy and paste bars from, a little bit fiddly but obviously I can't use NWC as a word processor!

I was also wondering if anyone else had used NWC in this purpose before and could offer any tips from experience?
