Is there any alternative to font "PGChords.ttf" for jazz chords, which is more readable? When trying to choose a different font in the preferences, the message appears that the font is reset to the "PGChords". I am seeking a font that is not a handwriting font, but use small capitals instead of jazz symbols similar to something like this:

You should be able to choose any font that is installed on your system. I often use Arial.
Just checking, is this for a Windows PC?
The method of changing fonts and other display settings changed with version 2016 of BIAB. Can you first tell us which version of BIAB you have? If it is version 2016, there are a few places to look at. Right-click on the main chord display and choose Display Options. There are about 8 boxes in the middle that can alter the appearance of chords. Experiment.
If nothing "holds" as you say, then that's a different problem; likely a permissions thing and we'll deal with that. Write back and let us know your progress.
If you have an older version than BIAB 2016, tell us and someone else can give you the steps (I've forgotten).

I have a German BIAB 2016 (Windows 10) and I do not succeed. In fact, font changes always reset with the message(translated from german): "Note: In order to allow the presentation of Jazz chord symbols like C-7 and Co7 that chord font is set to PGChords" ... if simultaneously "Jazz Symbols" is ticked (as i would like to keep some jazz symbols like Ø). My BiaB is installed (with administrator rights) on D:\bb and the system fonts are somewhere on C:. I have looked through all the possible options you mentioned but did not find a combination of settings to represent something similar to my example. I would like this especially for the printed fake sheets. What I would love is as an example F MI7 instead of F- 7 but keep F Ø7 and Fo 7, F b 7 (with all "7"s and "b"s superscripted). And all this in a not handwritten font, but a condensed serif font like in the appended example. At least, it is an combination of jazz symbols and letter abbreviations like small caps "MI" for "-" and "MA" for the major triangel. May be it should be an alternative symbol font to "pgchords" with the same character set but other glyphs (and not handwritten ones) at the corresponding locations.

It is my understanding that would require designing a new font. There is no way to pick and choose individual symbol choices; you get everything as it appears in that one font.
I was a beta tester of a music notation program for many years where there were seemingly endless tweaks to a single new font's appearance, and very little agreement among users on what they wanted.
However, I suggest you make a post in the BIAB Wishlist Forum. Perhaps PG Music can figure a way to have display options for your suggestions.

I'm in agreement that I prefer non-handwritten fonts for chords. I find them much more readable when sight reading.
Although any Times or Roman font would get rid on the handwritten style, it doesn't help with the sizes.
I have an old copy of Encore that does that automatically, and I use it for my charts, so I don't know if BiaB does it or not.
I don't however recommend Encore, as the company was purchased twice and I haven't seen updates in about 10 years. But it works for the limited uses I need it for.
Any good notation program should be able to do this if you export from BiaB though.

I had the hope that maybe other BIAB users have already developed alternative symbol fonts. Maybe I do that now, if I do find a little time for it. It might be helpful for other users,too.

If you know how to do that, get in touch with PG Music and work with them.

I created a new font pgchords.com inspired by the fonts and layout in the 557 JAZZ STANDARDS real book series. Everything looks and works fine, but one thing I can not solve: Where in the options can I choose the font for the subtitles (for instance the green marked composers name)?

That's not bad! Can you either share the font, or tell us how to do that please?

I will share the font in the next time, but there are some minor things (letter distances, hints) to correct first, also there are still some glyphs left to do.
Also I will ask PG-Music. It would be better to have this new font as an choice but not as an replacement. As far as I can see, BiaB choose jazz symbols just with a font named PCChords.ttf.
Does anyone has an idea, where I can select the font for the "subtitles"? I tried everything in the notation preferences but to no result.

Brillie,
I have BIAB 2016 and I've looked everywhere to see how to change the text for Composer 1 and Composer 2. Initially it seemed as though "Title" text would do the job but when I loaded Windows Symbol font, it was clear that Title text did not do the job.
I think you need to contact PG Music Support about this.
Regards,
Noel
P.S. It's a great font you've created!

In the SONAR forum, Cakewalk finally opened up to users what they call 'themes'. Just about any element on the screen can be changed. Some users have become very prolific designing and sharing themes.
Maybe 15 or so years ago, PG Music opened up BIAB for user-designed color schemes, and this was popular and fun for users. Allanah's scheme was particularly nice. Perhaps the next step is to allow users access to all text parameters.

I wrote to PGs Customer support last week about some technical details on font handling, but did not get an answer yet. I also asked for the permission to share this new font. So lets see.

My font is ready (besides some optimization in the kerning tables as one might see) and it works fine (I attached a sample lead sheet print from BiaB). I had to name the font the same as PGChords.ttf, to not get it rejected by BiaB when checking "Jazz Symbols" – which is not a perfect solution. It would be better, to have both fonts as a choice. Also I would love to have the font for the four subtitles (composer 1 and 2, tempo, style) free selectable – for now you can only choose it together with the titles font – and even this does not work: the subtitles will always be PGTextJ or in any other cases Arial. I am in contact to Peter Gannon about all this. Lets see, how we can solve it.

I'm really liking this!
I hope your statement about 'being in contact to Peter' means he is actively working with you.
The best part is showing the extensions vertically, like #5#9. Really nice.

I agree with the look part but as far as My Prince is concerned that chart is all wrong. It's in Bb, why is the melody note in bar 2 written as an A# and the chord is a D7#5#9? The 7 is a C, the #5 is a Bb and the #9 is an F. That chord is simply a Bb7 and I would just use a Bb pedal bass for those two bars. So it goes from BbMaj7 to a Bb7. Big deal. No need for all these extensions when all that's happening is a change of one note of the BbMaj7 chord.
It's charts like these that drive me crazy as a keyboard player. Off topic I know, but it seriously makes my teeth ache...

202 New RealTracks Released with Band-in-a-Box 2026!
With Band-in-a-Box® 2026, we've released 202 incredible new RealTracks (in sets 468-488) in a variety of genres—featuring your most requested styles!
Jazz, Funk & World (Sets 468-475):
Our new jazz, funk & blues RealTracks include a groovin’ collection of RealTracks and RealDrums! These include more requested “soul jazz” RealTracks featuring artists Neil Swainson (bass), Charles Treadway (organ), Brent Mason (guitar), and Wes Little (drums). There are new “smooth jazz” styles (4), which include a RealTracks first: muted trumpet, as well as slick new smooth jazz brushes options for drums. Blues lovers will be thrilled—there are more “classic acoustic blues” styles, including guitar (5), bass (4), and drums (10) with blues master Colin Linden, featuring understated and tasty background acoustic soloing, plus brushes drums and acoustic bass. There are also new electric blues RealTracks, including electric blues with PG favorite Johnny Hiland (3) and soulful electric slide guitar from Colin Linden (4). If you love funk & gospel, there are great new options this year, including gospel organ (3) from Charles Treadway, as well as new funk, tango, and rock ’n’ roll drums (3) and bass (1). And for big, bold arrangements, we have uptempo soul horns (4) featuring a three-part hip horn section with options for a full mix or stems of each individual horn — plus an accompanying rhythm section (4) of drums, bass, guitar, and electric piano!
Rock & Pop (Sets 476–482):
Our new rock & pop RealTracks bring a powerful mix of requested favorites, fresh genres, and modern chart-inspired styles! We have more of our popular “Producer Layered Acoustic Guitars (15)” featuring Band-in-a-Box favorite Brent Mason. We’ve continued our much-requested disco styles (10), and added new Celtic guitar (5) with a more basic, accessible approach than our previous Drop-D or DADGAD offerings. There are also highly requested yacht rock styles (17), inspired by the smooth, polished soft-rock sound of the late ’70s and early ’80s — laid-back grooves, silky electric pianos, warm textures, elegant harmonic movement, and pristine production aesthetics. Fans of heavier styles will love our new glam metal (13), capturing the flashy, high-energy sound of ’80s arena-ready guitar rock. We also have a set of rootsy modern-folk rock (18), with a warm, organic sound combining contemporary folk textures and driving acoustic strumming. And we’ve added lots of new modern pop styles (16) — the kinds of sounds you’re hearing on the radio today, featuring exciting new drums, synths, and cutting-edge RealTracks arrangements.
Country, & Americana (Sets 483–488):
Our new country & Americana RealTracks deliver a rich collection of acoustic, electric, and roots-inspired styles! We have new country pop (9) with legendary guitarist Brent Mason. There is also a potpourri (14) of bouzouki, guitars, banjo, and more, perfect for adding texture and character to contemporary acoustic arrangements. We’ve added funky country guitar (5) with PG favorite Brent Mason, along with classic pedal steel styles (5) featuring steel great Doug Jernigan. There are more country songwriter styles (8) that provide intimate, rootsy foundations for storytelling and modern Americana writing. Finally, we have “background soloing” acoustic guitar (12) with Brent Mason — simpler, but still very tasty acoustic lines designed to sit beautifully behind vocals or act as a subtle standalone solo part.
Check out all the 202 new RealTracks (in sets 468-488)!
And, if you are looking for more, the 2026 49-PAK (for $49) includes an impressive collection of 20 bonus RealTracks, featuring exciting and inspiring additions to add to your RealTracks library. You'll get new country-rhythm guitar styles from PG Music favorites Johnny Hiland and Brent Mason, along with modern-pop grooves that capture today’s radio-ready sound! There are also new indie-folk styles with guitar, bass, 6-string bass used as a high-chording instrument, acoustic guitar, and banjo. Plus, dedicated "cymbal fills" RealDrums provide an added layer that work very well with low-key folky styles with other percussion.
The 2026 49-PAK is loaded with other great new add-ons as well. Learn more about the 2026 49-PAK!
