Music Fonts
Flat includes two different music fonts that can be used to display your sheet music: Classical and Jazz/Handwritten.
To customize the music font used in your score, open the Layout Settings, next to the print button.
On our desktop web app, this is usually located on the right of your screen, or in the "Document" toolbar. On our mobile app, click on the edit button on the top of your screen.
Choose the music font
In the Layout settings, scroll to Music font and choose the font you want to use for your sheet music.
At this time, there are 13 music fonts available.
