Selecting font, size, and style for the text

Procedure

  1. Select the text that you want to make settings for.

    If nothing is selected, the settings you make are the “default settings”. The next time you insert text, these settings are used.

  2. Open the Score Settings dialog and select the Text page.
  3. Select a font from the Font pop-up menu.

    How many and which fonts appear depends on what typefaces you have installed on your computer.

    Important

    For regular text you should avoid the “Steinberg” fonts. These are the fonts Cubase uses for all scoring symbols, etc.

  4. Select a text size from the Size pop-up menu (or enter one manually in the text field).
  5. You can also add one or several font options using the checkboxes and pop-up menus.
  6. Click Apply to apply the settings to the selected text.

    Note that you can select other text blocks while the dialog remains open – the dialog is updated to reflect the settings of the selected text.

  7. When you are done, close the Score Settings dialog.
