Rosegarden is a great program for making compositions/arrangement but its printing capabilities are limited. With MusicXML you can export your music to programs like Mscore (or even Finale or other commercial tools) to create a score and/or separated parts. That's at least I'm using it. > > Good: After importing the .xml file into mscore, the bar lines came out > correctly!

You can use Mscore for printing now :-) > > Bad: There were no repeat signs, I know. Does Rosegarden have "real" repeats? There are repeated segments but is this the same as "repeats" as I see on a score?

For now I'm exporting every event I encounter but some cleanup would result in a better file. I will have a look into this. > > I can't remember if I offered you commit access already.
