From Plate to Page | Discover Dorico

In this session, we’ll take a Henle metal plate to see how it was engraved by the masters. We’ll then see how close Dorico can get to that style including positioning of items, note spacing and beaming options.
If you want to see how these plates were made by engraving masters, please check out these videos on the Henleverlag channel: • Music Engraving on Met...
You can also purchase a plate from some engravers such as Henle: www.henle.de/en/Gifts/

Brilliant video :)

[@JanBLarsson]

Thanks John. Very interesting and useful video!

[@Flamdragz]

I want a Dorico mug!!!!

[@michaelwinter8287]

Me too!

[@robinthomsoncomposer]

Perfect timing thanks John. Layout is my weakest area of skill with Dorico

[@JamesGilbertMusic]

Great video. I can't help but wonder if one were typesetting a contemporary version of the violin part would they go with the tight spacing or go more with the default Dorico settings?

[@boriss.861]

Thanks John one of your best yet!!
Still would like Hanging Slurs for Percussion
Glissandi up to the first beats of a bar!

If you mean lv ties, those are included. If you mean a tie on a tremolo with the tremolo stopping at the end of a tie chain, those are in the "repeats" section. You can easily combine those. For the gliss, use a straight line scoop from the ornaments section and manually extend it in Engrave mode.
