Installing the fonts:

NOTE: If you wish to save your score as a MIDI file on your local file system and/or use the screen reader functionality, pass the java run time parameter in your Java Plug-in (In Windows Start->Setting->Control Panel->Java Plug-in):

-Djava.security.policy=/music/JScoreML/JScoreMLPolicy


SECURITY HAZARD NOTICE!

Make sure you delete this java run time parameter from your plug-in after you have finished using JScoreML. This policy file will have given applets unrestricted access to all your local files and folders!
