Anyone interested in new music fonts for Sibelius ?

I uploaded 21 free music fonts (SIL OFL/GNU GPL license) converted for Finale on my homepage. As they are 100% Maestro-compatible, they can also be used in Sibelius through the Maestro-house style: all Maestro symbols are available.

The included fonts are based on Bravura (Dorico), Beethoven (LilyPond), Emmentaler (LilyPond), Euterpe, FreeSerif (Unicode), Gootville (Musescore), Haydn (LilyPond), Improviso (LilyPond), JazzyBasic (MuseScore), Leipzig (Verovio), LV-GoldenAge and many other open fonts.
All fonts were created through a process I developed called "Automatic Font Conversion" which can automatically transform a music font from one standard (e.g. LilyPond) to another (e.g. Finale Maestro).
