Title: Preview Clipboard Copy
Post by: PSALM_WRITER on 2012-08-26 03:43 AM
I am clipboard copying into Corel Presentation.  When I have half note flags up, they appear with three components. Note, vertical stem, flag.  The flag character portion show up as an unknown character rectangular box.  When the rectangle is selected the Font is NWC2STDA.TTF and when the font type is switched to a a standard text font the character is shown as a ','.  Has anyone else experienced this problem?  I didn't have this problem until I upgraded to version 2.  I tried to see if I could use the font from version 1 and the upright flag was character "S", so I can't reassign the font for that portion of the character.

I have used the EMF metafile format, and the upright half note flag came into the editor correctly. Since I am editing the vertical spacing of the title, composer and shifting staffs, I cannot use the graphic image.

Is there an update for the NWC2STDA.TTF that has corrected the missing vertical flag?

They shouldn't. Half notes do not have flags.

No. There is nothing to "correct."  NWC2STDA.TTF is a valid Windows font.

The current version of NWC2STDA.TTF is 1.90

I didn't have this problem until I upgraded to version 2.
The font used by NWC 1.75 (NWCV15.ttf) is simpler than NWC2STDA.TTF
Specifically, the flags have been moved to an area that is sometimes misinterpreted by some applications that use function calls that try to emulate Windows.

Sorry,  It was late last night.  It is the 1/8 note flags that are displaying as the rectangles.  Is there away that I can attach a graphic to a posting so I can show what is wrong?
