Title: Support for Error: Missing Font NWC2STDA
Post by: Allan Micksch on 2021-09-27 04:14 pm
Sent email to support@noteworthycompser.com last Tuesday about this error but have not received a reply even to acknowledge receipt of my email.  The file exists in the Fonts folder but the nwc2.exe can't seem to find it.

Newly installed NWC2? Or has been used, and now suddenly does not work?
And: Can you change the main font (Alt-F-G -> tab "Fonts" -> "Change" -> "Notation Typeface", select a different one there) and check whether it works?

Which Font foder?
Windows\Fonts or NoteWorthy Composer 2\Fonts?

NoteWorthy Composer 2\Fonts contains fonts.ini which contains the lines:
Quote

; The [Fonts] section contains a list of fonts that will be dynamically loaded
; when necessary.

NWC2STDA=NWC2STDA.ttf

Hi Allan,
this thread might be helpful if something happens again.  The last reply in the thread is from Noteworthy:

I don't know why support hasn't responded.

Could not resist ... https://youtu.be/7Z-fZkyeS-I (https://youtu.be/7Z-fZkyeS-I) - maybe "fair use" according to the law, but - ok, I admit it: not fair in in the common sense of the word. And also not helpful.
(I'm always looking for lyrics - your posting is formatted so like a poem that it cries for being set to music - you'll get the full royalities when they start flowing!)

Aren't the ...Germanic fonts in the standard install?? And which 12 user objects are those missing ones (my choral template has, nowadays, quite a handful of user objects on each staff; there being 12 staves, it seems that there are two of them that need to be installed ... as far as I know, all of them should be in the forum, but I might have used a modified local copy of some).

Nope.  They were a later addition.  Although I have no objection to their inclusion in the installer should Eric choose to.

As a result you need to download the ChordFontSupplement from this page:
