You may use the hyphen (-) key to insert a tiny segment of staff, if alignment of the notes is important. This version assigns a nonzero cursor width. In versions of this font prior to 3.41, these were 'zero cursor width' symbols that confused some applications.

The companion font, MusiQwikB, contains 1/16 notes instead of 1/8 notes. This is sufficient for depicting the melodies of most popular songs and church hymns. It also includes elements for constructing notes from 1/1 to 1/8 duration, with or without accidental or dot, from pitch two ledger lines below the staff to one ledger line above it. The font includes clefs, time signatures, key signatures, and a number of other staff symbols. There are free utilities for this purpose, such as 'Typecase' for Windows, by Anthony Appleyard, available from sources such as I am told that similar utilities are available for Macintosh. MusicQwik is best used with a 16-column character map that places the space character in the leftmost column. Also be sure to inspect your music carefully, especially if you make use of ties or fermatas, since some applications will insert undesired white space. Be sure that you embed the font in your documents or re-distribute the font to those who wish to see your music, or reduce the notation to a bitmap image.

Version prior to 3.41 referred to MusiQwikB and 'MusiQwik Bold' but this confused some applications, as is it not a bold font. The difference is that MusiQwikB has 1/16 notes in places where MusiQwik has 1/8 notes. There are two fonts in the MusiQwik family: MusiQwik, and MusiQwikB. Most users will not notice the difference from version 3.41, but the version 4.00 font may work in some applications that did not properly process all of the earlier versions.
