It's very weird that Finale 26 should "seek out and destroy" fonts which, at the time it was created, are nothing to do with Finale 26.

They're not new versions of Maestro, Engraver, Jazz -- they are new, different fonts with new, different names. Hopefully, it's not deleting fonts that are just "named a bit similar"... :shock:

I've gotten the same. v27 has been daily problems. It's a piece of JUNK, and ruining my life because it's all I do and have left.

Sorry that your life is being ruined.

The page Mike linked to last year now only has the Windows font installer (thanks, MM) while this has the current font installers for both Mac and Windows.
