All,
Just upgraded to build 145 and now when I try to print out a fake sheet the Title font only prints to Arial bold, even though the fake sheet setting for Title is set to PG Textj (the default, I believe). It displays correctly in the Window, but when I try to preview it in the print dialog it displays as Arial (or, I'm guessing it's Arial--it sure ain't a jazz font.) This was never a problem before the upgrade. Because it's happening at the printing stage, I'm wondering if some incompatibility with Preview crept in.
I'm still using El Capitan. I've combed through every options and settings Window I can find. The only settings pertaining to The Title field either switch it on or off, or change the font. I don't see any settings in Preview that would make a difference, but I didn't dig that deep.
Thx!

I've seen the same problem with PG Textj showing as Arial on build 145. It's not just the Title Font; it occurs wherever you have PG Textj selected.
I am also on El Capitan, but use Adobe Acrobat Reader for .pdfs, rather than Preview.
Another notation issue (possibly related) is that the triplet symbol uses Arial font for the numeral '3'. Sort of minor, but doesn't look good.
I contacted Support and reported the issue and agree it was not a problem before this build.

Thanks for the quick response. So do they display normally under Adobe? I meant to try that too. Hope they resolve this quickly! I use fake sheet all the time and need to get revisions to my bandmates.

I found a work-around for the font issue. On Notation Options, select 'Other...' for Title Font (and any others needed). It will bring up a list of available fonts; highlight PGTextje (instead of PGTextj). It should work for your leadsheets.

Thanks! I got that to work just fine. I'm not sure what the distinction is between the PGTextJ and PGTextJe fonts, but this should tide us over until the next release.
I noticed that selecting PGTextJ font as an "other" causes BiaB to crash. I guess the solution there would be: don't do that!
On the subject of Notation options--the word "LeadIn" is displays and prints in Arial as well--where is that setting? It only shows up in Fake Sheet Mode, so I should think it would be set fairly close by. Icing on the cake really, but it would be nice to know.
