This font may be used like any True Type font in a word processor. It may be useful for illustrating a line of X-head musical notation, of the kind sometimes used by drummers. It may also be useful for showing the rhythm of spoken words. Lowercase characters do not contain a horizontal line linking them. Uppercase characters are linked by a horizontal line. Use the font with a character map that magnifies the symbols, so you can see what you are doing. Sometimes, part of a symbol (such as beams or triplets notation) may not be readily visible when inspecting a character. The font includes whole through sixteen notes and rests. Dotted notes are available. Eighth and sixteen notes may be beamed, including rests and dots. There is a percussion clef, measure bar, repeats, and system close. Triplets may also be constructed. There is not much logic between keyboard strokes and musical symbols. Use a character map to hunt for what you need.
