2. ChordSymbol 2 Chord Symbol 2, a Unicode font (with TrueType component fonts for non-Unicode apps), was released in 2009. CS 2 has over 2200 special characters and is infinitely extensible. We welcome user suggestions for additional characters and will incorporate them into future upgrades. CS 2 is ideally suited to instructional applications, since users can employ it without anything getting �lost in translation.�

3. ChordSymbol 2 Totally redesigned Unicode font package. Unicode is a robust font technology based on an international standard. Unicode fonts can handle up to 100,000 characters. All Unicode characters map the same on both Mac and Windows in any Unicode-compliant application. Users can switch freely between CSTwo and CSThree. Both fonts provide a wide range of symbols used in classical music and jazz/commercial music. Many can be entered with a single click.

4. ChordSymbol 2 Base font: Times New Roman. Formal-looking serif font, appropriate for traditional music. Provides symbols for Roman-numeral and Schenkerian analysis; figured bass; commercial music. Ultra-high-quality workmanship � everything is point-perfect to 1/2048th of an em.

ChordSymbol 2 CSTwo Provides two rows of figured-bass symbols Useful in text documents; does not alter line spacing CSThree Provides three rows of figured-bass symbols Can be used in text documents but may alter line spacing Both fonts contain the entire alphabet and all characters needed for Western European languages.
