It's not off topic. Music fonts are a crucial part of music type setting.
Chord symbols, figured bass, roman numerals and metronome marks are just a
few of the things which depend on fonts. This is why JAWS will often seem to
be speaking nonsense when you read some pieces of text in Sibelius. It's
because JAWS is reading the ASCII character and not a description of the
glyph in the font.

Even more importantly, Sibelius uses fonts to draw the notes in the score.
So, if the fonts are not installed, there is no way that Sibelius will work
properly.

Ramy,

This list is primarily about the Sibelius Access scripts, as its name
implies. To locate fonts, which is quite off-topic, try a search engine and
type opus font, in quotation marks.
