 not include booklet printing the way that for OS9 did.

Isn't it Adobe's version of the postscript driver that offered Booklet
printing on driver level? I don't think Apple's version ever supported this,
so it isn't really them to blame.

This is a followup to yesterday's thread. It appears that booklet 
printing is only available in OS9. (This is yet another example of OSX 
not-ready-for-prime-time-ness.) In Google searches I've found many 
bitter complaints that booklet printing has (so far) been orphaned in 
OSX on a variety of printers, i.e., apparently all of them. If anyone 
knows of an OSX solution, I'd love to hear about it. (I wonder if 
using Acrobat 5 in Classic would work!)
If printing in Classic works for you generally, then yes, there should 
be no problem printing from the classic version of Acrobat 5.

I hope and pray you're talking about Acrobat here, and not a 
system-wide problem that would affect Finale?

It is a system-wide problem. That is, the current OSX Postscript driver does not 
include booklet printing the way that for OS9 did.

However, Finale itself has built-in booklet printing that is (presumably) still 
available in Finale 2004 even when running under OSX, and it is far superior to that 
of the OS9 Postscript driver. The only time one needs the printer driver is when one 
needs to combine title pages from a word processor with music pages from Finale. Then 
Finale's booklet printing is mostly useless.

BTW: Thanks to Davo van Puersen for suggesting I use Acrobat Reader 4 instead of 5. 
Acrobat Reader 4 does not have the font problem that 5 does. (Go figure.)

My preferred method for dealing with this to date is to create the title pages in 
Finale, too.  And given that the text editor of 2k4 will be WYSIWYG, this will even be 
more effective than previously.  Though I've not yet been forced to do this, I had 
already decided that if for some reason it was necessary to use a word processor for 
something that Finale could not handle, that
I'd do it in the word processor, save it as a graphic image, convert to a ~.tif 
format, and incorporate the graphic in the Finale score.

 Clickbook works much better than Fineprint, in my opinion (and I've used 
 both).
 
 

Clikbook (which is the software I was thinking about when I started this post) does 
not work in OSX, according to the website. I never used it because early versions were 
specifically not compatible with Finale.

A product that is close is Booklet Maker 1.1, but it hasn't been updated since 1997 
and it works with .ps files rather than .pdf files. Too bad, though, because it could 
have been just the ticket if its author had maintained any interest in it.

world of PDFs. There used to be a bookletizing product on the market specifically for 
booklet printing. Does anyone remember what it was called? I haven't turned up 
anything with web searches. :-(

Pagemaker comes with the plugin. Then there's Fineprint (for PC, though).

Robert, have you checked the Adobe PS drivers? They come with booklet
printing. (I am talking Mac OS9 here).
Hope it helps...
