Hello. Ive recently upgraded to v27, running on Sonoma on an M1 Mac. Ive created a bunch of new files and was trying to merge them with older files using Score Merge. The old files appear fine, but the new files have all the staccato dots replaced with boxes with question marks in them. How do I resolve this ?

There are SMuFL fonts (which generally have "Finale" in their names) and non-SMuFL fonts (which don't). They don't mix. If you're going to merge the two, you need to convert documents based on non-SMuFL fonts to SMuFL. "Document" menu, "Set Default Music Font."
