488 Chapter 16 Score Editor

It is very easy to change back and forth between a normal and extremely enlarged

view of the display, by using the Magnifying Glass tool (shortcut: rubber band

selection while holding down Control, to enlarge the selected area).

Using external Symbol Fonts for Display and Printout of Notes and Symbols

You can use the Sonata font by Adobe, the Jazzfont (http://www.jazzfont.com) and the

Swingfont (not included with Logic), instead of Logic’s internal score font, for display

and printout of notes and symbols. The external font must be properly installed in your

system. Activate Options > Score Preferences > Use external Symbol Font (if available) and

choose the font you wish to use in the corresponding pull-down menu.

Since screen display with some of these fonts is rather hard to read (especially at

smaller zoom levels), there is also an option to use the external font just for the

printout. Select only for Printout in the applicable Score Preferences option.

Graphic Export

You can save a part of a Logic score page (or a whole page) as an image (PICT format),

and paste it into documents created with other programs (like word processing and

DTP software). Use the Camera tool to select the desired score section, using the

“rubber band” selection technique. As soon as you release the mouse button, Logic

creates a PICT file, (or copies the selection to the Clipboard—see option below)

encompassing the area you dragged the Camera tool over. This function is available

only in Page Edit view.

There are some related settings in Logic > Preferences > Score Preferences:

Graphic Export Resolution

Determines the resolution of the exported image file. This can be set between 72 and

600 dpi.

• If the image is intended for use on a computer screen only, use the low resolution

(72 dpi).

• If the image is intended for a document that will be printed, select your printer’s

resolution.

Graphic Export to (pull-down menu)…

• Clipboard: The image is copied to the Clipboard and can be pasted directly into

other documents, without saving it as a separate file.

• PICT File: The image will be saved as a PICT file. You’ll be given a file selector box, to

assign a file name and path.
