Is there somewhere I can get the font BOXMARK2 (I think that is the name) that is needed to enter rehearsal marks on scores?
Absent that, is there some way to enter text, for example [REFRAIN], but in a box on the staff? I thought I saw that somewhere, but can't remember the steps to do it.
Thanks

Hi BJ,
You can find Boxmark2 here: https://nwc-scriptorium.org/helpful.html

BOXMARK2 has been superseded long ago by the fonts in the PardyPack (https://noteworthycomposer.com/uc/pardypack/), courtesy of the good Lawrie.
Those fonts are backward compatible with BOXMARK and have glyphs to draw boxes and more. Not very easy but feasible.
With the XText.hmm (https://forum.noteworthycomposer.com/?topic=9737.0) object, you can do boxed texts out of the box - just select Justification "Left/Center/Right (boxed)".
H.M.
There is also BarLabel.ms, which was intended specifically for rehearsal marks (I would have called it RehearsalMark.ms but at the time, I didn't realize that is what they are called). It can be easily scaled up or down in size, and will automatically determine the measure number. You can also enter alternate text, such as REFRAIN.
Awesome responses. Thank you all for your helpful replies. I now have exactly what I need.
