+Manually placed tuplet numbers
+</H2>
+<P>
+Generally, Mup will place
+<A HREF="tuplets.html">tuplet</A>
+numbers for you.
+However, you do need to print them yourself on
+<A HREF="ichdattr.html#crossbm">cross-staff beams.</A>
+And there may be cases where you choose
+to use 'n' to turn off Mup's automatic printing of tuplet numbers,
+in order to print them manually in a different place than Mup would.
+Mup normally uses newcentury boldital font for tuplet numbers, in 11-point
+size for regular notes and 9-point for cue notes.
+So to make your manually placed tuplet numbers
+look the same as automatic ones, you might use a
+<A HREF="macros.html">macro</A>
+something like this:
+<BR><PRE>
+define TUPNUM(NUM) "\f(NX)\s(11)" +`NUM` @
+1: { 8c; d; e; } 3n; 2.us;
+rom above 1 dist0: 1.34 TUPNUM(3);
+bar
+</PRE><BR>
+Or another approach would be something like this:
+<BR><PRE>
+define TN(NUM,WHERE,D,N) newcentury boldital WHERE dist D: N `NUM`;@
+1: { 8c; d; e; } 3n; 2.us;
+TN(3,above 1,0,1.34)
+bar
+</PRE><BR>
