Hi all,

Do you think the sizing of my metronome marking could be improved? I'm using Times New Roman Bold Fixed 14pt for Vivo. Page resize at 80%. Should I make the crotchet etc bigger? Also, should I italicise the c.?

Any thoughts appreciated.
Cheers,
Hector.

Finale uses the Engraver Text font for the notes and tempo numbers. You can highlight that part of the expression and increase the size.

I like the old-fashioned look of the Maestro numerals:
