Hello. Any byz music font (ttf) can be used in Melodos. There are detailed instructions of installing it. If you need help ask.

Oh, very good!
So, I need help. I do not know where can I find other byzantine fonts. Please help me! Do you know any sites or... sources where I can download?

Melodos reads .ttf only. If it chokes on Stathis.ttf, the problem should be elsewhere. What malfunction exactly does appear?

Ὁ Χρῆστος Καζίλας προσφέρθηκε μὲ φιλότιμη διάθεση νὰ μετατρέψει τὰ σημάδια τῆς Νέας Μεθόδου ἀπ᾽ τὴν σημαδοσειρὰ Stathis Series, ὥστε νὰ λειτουργοῦν στὸ πλαίσιο τοῦ συστήματος ΜΚ (Μουσικὰ Κείμενα) τοῦ Δημήτρη Παπαδόπουλου https://papline.gr ἀλλὰ καὶ σὲ ὁποιοδήποτε κειμενογράφο, ὡς ἁπλῆ γραμματοσειρά, ἀκολουθῶντας ὡς πρότυπο τὴν οἰκογένεια σημαδοσειρῶν ΒΖ (τῶν Στέφανου Σουλδάτου καὶ π. Ἐφραίμ). Ἑπομένως, ὅσα ἀπὸ τὰ σημάδια τῆς χάραξης τοῦ καθηγητῆ Στάθη (Stathis Series) μποροῦν νὰ ἀντιστοιχιστοῦν στὶς ἀνάλογες θέσεις τῶν οἰκογενειῶν σημαδοσειρῶν ΒΖ καὶ ΜΚ συγκροτοῦν μιὰ νέα οἰκογένεια σημαδοσειρῶν μὲ τὶς ἑξῆς ὀνομασίες:
• Stathis_Byzantina
• Stathis_Fthores
• Stathis_Ison
• Stathis_Loipa
• Stathis_Palaia
• Stathis_Xronos

These font files are not compatible with Melodos, but they are created to work with MK software (https://papline.gr/) or any other writer like BZ font family does.

Followup question for anybody who might know -- is there a way to get the Stathis Series fonts to work with Melodos (linked to here). They're .ttf, but Melodos seems to choke on them. Thanks!

Not really an answer to your question, but I’ve had issues with Stathis fonts in MK. Automatic character alignment goes wrong (klasmata and gorga, for instance), and today I was unable to enter lyrics under 5-voice ascents, to give some examples.
