Finding all of them on the same font is not likely.

MS Reference 1 only has the circle P copyright symbol, none of the
others. It is one strange little font.

Artisan is a recording studio or record label or something -- I
suspect this will be Jeff's colleague's best bet. But don't hold your
breath. Although I've not seen any of the fonts and can't say for
sure, it's possible none of them will have all of the symbols Bob
wants.

This is not the first time I've seen something on Microsoft Typography
that differed from what I observed in real life. On neither of the
computers where I saw MS Reference 1 had there ever been a copy of
Encarta. Encarta was installed on one of them several months later,
but Compton's was the only encyclopedia ever installed on the other.
Both computers were bought from an OEM through a consultant, and the
only MS products on them were Windows and Works. I made a note about
MS Reference 1 because it had the circle P and someone else had just
asked me about the sound recording copyright symbol a day or two
before I noticed it on the first person's computer.
MS Reference 1 is a very strange little font set, with nothing on it
that would be of use to either of them. Other than by default,
neither of these guys would have had that font. However, I will take
it as given that it does not come with the boxed Windows releases.
But talk about good karma, just yesterday someone asked me about some
music notation fonts. My former husband is a composer, so naturally
everyone assumes I know all about writing music using a computer
(insert Diana rolling her eyes here). The web site Mark suggested has
music notation fonts (!!!). Wow.
Happy trails,
Diana
