Bigtime Font Free Download

Having a issue with fonts recently and I was wondering if anyone has encountered it before? The problem is presenting itself on both mac and pc but very differently. On a mac it is this with the font reverting to Geneva when continuting to type on the line that has the Adobe font.
On a PC, from an editor "I'm finding every time I go edit a title, it isn't recognising the font and defaulting to Arial, losing it's formatting, and adding in things like bold that it might not initially have had. This is undoing someone elses formatting. Even when the font is corrected, it has lost it's placement on screen so needs redoing each time, which is a big time sink. Is it a windows/mac issue? It's genuinely slowing things down and risks formatting issues across the board." - which is quite scary!
Using Media Composer version 2022.7, using classic title tool. Reinstalling the font, reinstalling the Media Composer, reinstalling the legacy tools (on a mac) have all been tried with no success. I contacted avid support and it is just painful. I was told classic title tool was not supported so the developers would not be contacted and to try Titler+ which would open up a raft of other issues I imagine.
I don't know how feasible it would be, but to have a feature where you could change the font time signatures independent of music font (ie. Bravura, Gonville, etc.) would be very very useful. That way, you could change the size of a sans-serif font time signature with the existing set up.
Well i don't really see how it is a big deal implementing this. Dorico uses the Smufl system as well, if I remember correctly. So it surely hasn't got anything to do with font format Musescore uses to display musical text. I would edit the font myself, but inserting the edited musical font for a sans look into the application package is a bitch and a half. I mean just dragging the file path in isn't the problem here it's just the compiling process that keeps me fro achieving this
1A. If you do not use my files for large time signatures or need some other time signature, you need to create them in vector image editor (I used Inkscape). I used Arial Condensed for the font, and set the overall height to be 10x that of the width. The actual measurements don't matter at it will have to be scaled within MuseScore.
Not necessarily a limitation in functionality but rather in design.
The new addition to change the size of the time signatures is great and I'm grateful for you guys implementing it, don't get me wrong but the design people are looking for with this is a readable, thin and clean looking time signature with a sans serif font. It's 100x more work but the only current solution I can see that works for the wanted design.
That's why I was asking if it were possible to add an easier way to add musical fonts. That way you could create an edited version of the font you wanted to use just with the sans serif look.
The origin of this design comes from the media music business, who sought for a more toner saving option for the time signatures and so, over time this kinda became the industry standard for media music.
The only reason I'm begging for this feature is because I have to use Finale for music school. And my scores would pass with Musescore if I had the design in question. I'm currently writing my music with Musescore and export it as a mxml file for Finale. Only issue here is that Finale screws up my layout and spacing, meaning I have to go through the whole thing again and layout the score.
I know many people before have requested this design, otherwise I wouldn't have started this threat. If I'm the only person who looks for this feature, why bother asking for it. I get why you and your team really evaluate the frequency or urgency for feature requests and I'm totally against feature clutters, that make it hard for beginners to pick up the software. But I reckon that it's really features like this that keep Musescore from becoming more popular in the pro world.
A collateral advantage of this is that you can copy a measure on the "time signature staff" and just paste to another measure on that staff, and the 2 or 3 images across the staves will be copied altogether, so you can i.e. "apply" the paste to all your 5/4 signatures, then do the same to 2/4 and so on.
This could be done with staff text and a Condensed font instead of images, except (again) text line spacing can't be controlled from Musescore.
If you like your current font size and style but wish you could see it better, try turning on High contrast. This will add an outline to all fonts so that they stand out against the screen. To turn on High contrast, follow the steps below.
Creative Cloud desktop must be running and you have to be signed in to Creative Cloud for the fonts to be added. If the software isn't running or you have signed out of Creative Cloud, the fonts will be unavailable temporarily.
