Chords Font Chords FontThis is a Sans Serif font designed to be space equivalent to MS CourierNew. This enables it to line up chords on a line above text.
The fontalso includes a number of characters useful for chart notation (e.g.accidentals in their Unicode specified locations, full and halfdiminished marks, etc.). It was never intended to be a complete musicsolution, and in that sense, it is successful. I have added a number ofmusical symbols which guitarists never use, and only rarely evenunderstand. But their presence should not prevent you from using therest of the font. I have also combined some symbols that are usuallywritten out.
If you don't like having a ' ' character,I suggest you not use it.Using real flats and sharps ( ♯s &♭s rather than '#'s and 'b's) will make your chordcharts more readable, although you do not actually need this font forthat. However, you will need this font, though, if you want todistinguish half-diminished seven chords ( 7) fromdoubly-(fully) diminished seven chords ( 7). However,one drawback is that since both the standard and new characters arelocated in ranges not directly accessible from the keyboard (eithertheir assigned Unicode locations or a user-defined area). As a result,you will either need to be constantly inserting symbols from the menu,or assign the ones you actually use to shortcuts.The regular Latin alphabet is located at the expected indices, althoughtechnically, only the caps A– G and a handful of lower case lettersshould be needed. The accidentals from the 'Miscellaneous Symbols' pageare encoded in their proper locations (u266D–F = ♭,♮, & ♯). The 'Number forms' page is completelysupported (mainly for the sake of the Roman numerals), as well asseveral of the arrows (u2130–3 + u2198 + u8599 = W, N, E, S, NE, &SE arrows). Superscript numbers and parentheses are supported in theplaces specified by the Unicode standard (which, however, scatters themaround): 0 = u2070, 1 = u00B9, 2 & 3 = u00B2 & 3, and 4–9 are inu2074–9; left and right parens are u207D & E.
These function asthe beat count numbers (numerators) in time signatures, and for measurecounts when located over the multi-measure rest. (The corresponding beatvalue numbers denominators are represented in the private use area,rather than as subscripts, since they are non-spacing characters thatsit under the beat count numbers; see below).Most of the music symbols are in the 'Private Use Area'(uE000–uE1FF), with a logo at uE8FF. UE000–uE04A are uniqueto this font.
Some characters are re-mapped from the, which is located above uFFFF (u1D100–u1D1DD), and isconsequently unavailable to some software. Those characters are re-mappedhere at uE100–uE1D2 (where uE100 = u1D100, etc.), although only arelatively small selection are included, given the nature of this font.If you need a symbol that I don't have, write me and I will see what Ican do.At this stage, the font has not been hinted, so it looks better on paperthan it does on the screen.
I will get to that.Several of the characters are non-spacing characters designed to modifysome previous character. They are indicated with '.' in the followinglist. The function of most should be obvious. Only two are worthpointing out. The beat value numbers (uE041–uE049) are intended gounder the count numbers mapped to the superscript number area (seeabove) to create time signatures. The long rest is designed to be ableto be able to sit under a two digit number (also from the superscriptnumbers), so if less than two digits are needed, you will have to padthe number with a space.The Chords font is free, both to private and commercial users, providedit is unmodified.
Of course, you can modify for your own private use. Ifyou feel a change is necessary, please contact me first. If you do makea modification, send it to me, maybe I will include it, or somethinglike it. The one caveat on on commercial use is that it may not be re-sold. Itis, however, acceptable to bundle it with other products for which moneyis being charged.Standard characters: Latin characters: A B C D E F G a b c d e f gŽ žExtra numeric characters: ¹ ² ³ ⁰ ⁴ ⁵ ⁶ ⁷ ⁸ ⁹ ⁽ ⁾⅐ ⅑ ⅒ ⅓ ⅔ ⅕ ⅖ ⅗ ⅘ ⅙ ⅚ ⅛ ⅜ ⅝ ⅞ ⅟Ⅰ Ⅱ Ⅲ Ⅳ Ⅴ Ⅵ Ⅶ Ⅷ Ⅸ Ⅹ Ⅺ Ⅻ Ⅼ Ⅽ Ⅾ Ⅿⅰ ⅱ ⅲ ⅳ ⅴ ⅵ ⅶ ⅷ ⅸ ⅹ ⅺ ⅻ ⅼ ⅽ ⅾ ⅿↀ ↁ ↂ Ↄ ↄArrows: ℰ ℱ Ⅎ ℳ ↘ 薙Standard musical symbols: ♪ ♫ ♭ ♮ ♯Misc.
