Hi Richard,

Ah, I think you are talking about the music scanning that is packaged
with Finale 2004. This doesn't use Dolet or MusicXML at all. And as you
have noticed, it doesn't use your document settings either.

I think SharpEye Music Reader will do a better job for you. It shouldn't
be making any of those mistakes on a regular basis. Nothing's perfect,
of course: a poorly printed time signature will confuse most scanners at
this point, just like poorly printed text will confuse OCR programs. But
the best way to find out is to try it yourself from:

The full version of Dolet will give the best results. But on Finale
2004, the big difference will be between SmartScore Light and SharpEye,
rather than between the light and full versions of Dolet.

Best regards,
