Id also like to ask you, why did you do recorderfingering for flute instrument? I tried to get it working on soprano recorder but fingering was wrong. Do you just prefer flute sound or? (its important only becuse of educational use. I want to be presice when i teach)

Could someone make recorder font for german sopranorecorder? The one with german fingering. Biggest problem is F note. Or can someone recommend me a good font editing software. Free of course.

I must say, I did the plugin but I'm not a flutist and I didn't know there were english and german fingering. I added a link to your font on the plugin page : http://musescore.org/en/project/recorderfingering
If you are able to give more details about what the plugin is doing, please do so in a comment and I will edit the plugin page.
Btw, do you have a link to this free font editing software?

Im not sure if its a good idea to link that font to my dropbox folder. Its just i dont know if its realiable (i can accidentally remove it). Could you find that font file a better place to store? :D

Hello, thank you for good plugin, but I have some problem with it German font . Sounds G#, C#, F# are not working. Here is the PDF of chromatic scale on google drive https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B3SXBS2zevr7ekttMEJDTEQwVmc/edit?usp=sh…
Could somebody help me to fix it? Thank you in advance!
I recently downloaded this plugin and installed the font on my Mac. While the font previews correctly in my Font Book, it does not appear correctly in my score or in any other application (like Pages). The plugin does appear to be working otherwise; it displays a different set of letters when I change my selection from "sopranino alto" to "soprano tenor," but letters are all I see - no fingerings. The font is installed to Macintosh HD/Library/Fonts, so theoretically it should be accessible to any user in any program. Please advise. Thanks!

Did you find a solution to this problem?
As of now (February 2012) I am still unable to make the Recorder Fingering font work on my Mac. I have successfully used the plug-in in a virtual Windows environment using VM Ware on my Mac laptop, but the font is not translating properly on the Mac OS. I am still using Snow Leopard, but will soon be upgrading to Lion; not sure if that will make a huge difference or not. If there is anyone out there who has successfully used this plug-in in the Mac environment, I would love to hear from them.
PS: Incidentally, you can use this plug-in to include Bass Recorder fingerings but you must first transpose your Bass Recorder line up one octave, THEN run the plug-in. After you have run the plug-in and the correct fingerings have been rendered in the piece, you can then go back and transpose the line back down to the correct octave. Transposing the notes in either direction will not change the fingerings once the plug-in has been run. If you do not transpose the line up an octave before running the plug-in, however, your Bass Recorder fingerings will be one octave too low for the intended pitch. This does not appear to be an issue for Tenor, Alto, or Soprano; I haven't tried running any Sopranino lines through the plug-in yet.

Thank you for your answer. What a pity that I can't use this interesting plug-in on my Mac. The other one (whistle) works correctly, I hope the recorder-font will be updated.
