Hi All,

I have noticed this phenomenon also. Why would it be intentional I wonder? And 
if so, why not exceed the lower staff line also? What would be the purpose in 
exceeding the bounds? I don’t see it adding legibility or clarity, and indeed, 
small offsets like this tend to fill the perceptual system with needless 
detail, leading to overall loss of immediate clarity.

So, I am very curious to know if this is supposed to be an intentional 
engraving practice.

This *may* be intended, which should be checked - if someone recalls any

At least I recall speaking someone from a major publishing house about
how they created their own music font, and specifically made it do what
the OP reported.
