all measures will have nearly the same width.
The measures get proportional spacing: i.e. Number of systems per page is adjustable for staves with lyrics and without.
Page and system margins and scaling are adjusted automatically. Staff lines are added to fill up the page. This guarantees a more realistic handwritten look compared to just using one jazz font in one size. The noteheads are slightly oversize (font size 25-27 instead of 24). The stem length, the notehead size and the stem connections are varied randomly too. Noteheads and accidentals are taken randomly from all installed similar jazz fonts. The composer name is preceded by a "-" symbol. The main music style mark is rotated diagonally, put in parentheses and moved upwards upon the top staff lines. The title gets a thick underline and all text/lyrics blocks are converted to a handwritten font Live video: Creating all five examples in Finale in just two minutes (Converted to double speed, original length 4m07s)įeatures of the Realbook Look plug-in: 1.)
