Once the music font is installed on your computer, it’s a little bit tricky to figure out where the various notes/symbols are located within the font. It’s pretty easy to install fonts, but you can find tutorials online that can lead you through the process if you need some help (just Google it). Then you must download and install them onto your computer. If you don’t have any music fonts on your computer, you can find them online. If you own a music engraving software like Finale or Sibelius, then guess what: You already have music fonts on your computer! Using Fontbook (on Mac computers) or “Fonts” in the Control Panel (PCs), you can view all the fonts installed on your computer. This post will attempt to demystify the process and point you to some links and resources. However, using music fonts is a little more complicated than you might think. The great thing about using music fonts is that anyone can use them, without having to buy an expensive program like Finale. Finally, here it is! If you have been wondering how you can create your own music worksheets/resources, this guide will help you get started.įor my worksheets/materials, I use graphics exported from Finale about 30% of the time, and music fonts the other 70% of the time.

I’ve been wanting to write a post about using music fonts for a long time.
