I appended ".mus" to all documents.
I replaced all spaces with underscores ("_").I replaces all em dashes with hyphens.
I removed all periods except the one in ".mus"
So, the filenames now look like this:
Az_Der_Rebe_Elimelekh.mus Az_Der_Rebe_Elimelekh-A_Sx.mus Az_Der_Rebe_Elimelekh-BCl.mus Az_Der_Rebe_Elimelekh-Bsn.mus Az_Der_Rebe_Elimelekh-C_Bn.mus Az_Der_Rebe_Elimelekh-C_Tpt_1.mus
I try to run the "batch convert to 2005" FinaleScript.
FinaleScript now chokes on EVERY SINGLE FILE.
ARRRGGGGGHHHHHH!!!!!!!!
Is there -- somewhere -- a list of characters that you can't use in your filenames if you want FinaleScript to work? Because this is absolutely insanely eye-gougingly head-on-desk-bangingly frustrating.
I can't even begin to convert the fonts until I get all the old documents updated to Fin2005, and I can't get all the old documents updated if it's going to prompt me for every single filename. Gah.

Seconded. I've batch processed hundreds of files replacing several fonts in one go.
