What version of the Adobe Reader are you using? I'm using version 6.0 under Windows XP and the music looks normal to me.

Does this require a special font? I see the Maestro font in the PDF files, but I don't see anything special installed on my machine for that.

Failure is NOT an option - it comes bundled with the software.

Ah, updating fixed it. I suppose these things happen when you wait a year and a half to update your Acrobat Reader... :lol:

I must admit, I thought the same thing! :lol:

That's true...we're about due for one, aren't we?

I could host one here, but parking might be a bit of a bear, and probably most people wouldn't care to drive over the hill. Still, that's one possibility.

I'd be willing to drive over the hill and bring some people.

All I see are weird boxes, too. How disappointing!

I was all motivated up to play some tunes! :cry:

Sounds like you need to download a more recent version of Acrobat reader.

Wow. My irony is so subtle that even I don't get it. Hehe.

No, I saw the little boxes too. I guess next time I am prompted to update Acrobat I should, eh?

Thanks!

Greg also has lots of Christmas carols on his website. Try Good King Wenceslas, it's a great whistle duet!

That's what I see.
Wow! I wouldn't be able to decipher that either! :boggle:

On the site, though, I get the real thing.
