There are two files you might find useful. The first is the "Boxmarks" font, and the second is the "Crescendo" font. Both are available under the helpful files section at the NWC Scriptorium.

Boxmarks has many useful music symbols which are inserted as text, including a couple of hairpins. Crescendo is specifically for hairpins, and includes many of various lengths. These are both true type fonts, which you can use by setting them as user fonts through the page setup in NWC.
