[JW Lua] Meaning of ^font(...,integer) ?

[Jan Angermüller]

Jari,

do you have any more information on the optional integer value used in 
the font-tag ?
I noticed several weird behaviours when omitting the optional integer 
value in new text blocks:

- I had some strange (reproduceable) Finale crashes when the integer 
value was omitted. Those were solved by adding ",0" to all fonts that 
were listed in the MacSymbolFonts list and omitting ",0" when other 
fonts were used. I don't know if this is correct, but at least it worked.

- when I added the ",0", creating large amout of new page texts was 
processed much faster (about 5-8 times faster) than without the integer

All the best,
Jan
