I've been toying with the idea of using a MusicPad Pro from Freehand Systems for this sort of thing... you should be able to import PDFs into it, write notes and corrections on it, and then use a "print to PDF" function to get the edits into another file without ever having to print anything out. However, this would work best on projects on which I'm just the editor, because if I wanted to *receive* corrections this way I'd have to make sure the composer or editor had one of these devices. http://freehandsystems.com -- Brad Beyenhof Real-time Finale discussion: http://www.finaleirc.com my blog: http://augmentedfourth.blogspot.com Silence will save me from being wrong (and foolish), but it will also deprive me of the possibility of being right. ~ Igor Stravinsky _______________________________________________ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
