Here's the text of the README file included in the Sonata Folder. The bolding is mine. Looks like you need Finale, Sibelius or some other music layout software for best results. I happen to like Finale. A NOTE ABOUT THE SONATA FONT: Thank you for purchasing this Adobe exclusive. Sonata๏ฟฝ is a musical notation typeface designed by Cleo Huggins for use with any appropriate musical composition and setting applications. Though the characters in this typeface will appear side by side in word processors and desktop publishing software applications, only music composition applications will correctly and automatically overprint musical notations (clefs, notes, accidentals, etc.) on musical staffs. Please refer to the enclosed Key Cap Chart included with this package for complete character set information. Because the characters in this typeface package were designed to be used at larger sizes, text-sized bitmaps are not included. Edited bitmaps in 14, 18, 24 and 36 points are included.
