Finale Numerics font
The Finale Numerics font includes all the characters you need to create harmonic analysis and figured bass. Zero-width characters allow you to easily stack characters in three distinct levels from top to bottom . Use the Lyrics tool to add your harmonic analysis or figured bass beneath the staff. For instructions, see Harmonic analysis and Figured bass. The Finale Numerics font is designed for use with U.S. keyboard layouts only. Certain characters in non-U.S. layouts are located on different keys than those listed in this section.

SlashedA slash through a number indicates the note should be raised a half step (opposed to a sharp preceding the number, which indicates a sharp added to that specific pitch, which could mean more than a half step).
