As one who creates scores entirely for professional output, I feel compelled to point out that I use Finale --and always have--for all aspects of page layout, because it is capable of them. The program was always intended, AFAIK, to be an all-in-one music publishing package, and improving its capacities in that regard is IMO entirely on-message. I do not own a page layout program, and wouldn't know what to do w. one if I did. I also use Finale as my word processor, even for non-music correspondence. -- Andrew Stiller Kallisti Music Press http://www.kallistimusic.com _______________________________________________ Finale mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
