I believe the problem is that Finale (as well as some other that would
otherwize run in wine: tabledit, etc.) use their own true-type fonts for the
notation symbols.

So the question is how to get these fonts into Linux's TT font handling and
into wine's. I have a dual boot with Windows so their is a directory with all
those nice truetype fonts and I would love to be able to use them in
OpenOffice as well as the music stuff. So .. how.

I will post this on debian-user as well.
