+@node New dynamic marks
+@subsubsection New dynamic marks
+
+It is possible to print new dynamic marks or text that should be
+aligned with dynamics.  Use @code{make-dynamic-script} to create
+these marks.  Note that the dynamic font only contains the
+characters @code{f,m,p,r,s} and @code{z}.
+
+Some situations (such as dynamic marks) have preset font-related
+properties.  If you are creating text in such situations, it is
+advisable to cancel those properties with @code{normal-text}.  See
+@ref{Text markup commands}, for more details.
