I agree that Windows supports older stuff a lot better than Mac does, but there are reasons for that, I believe. Remember I was mentioning the problem of color matching between Mac and Windows a while back? Later I received a professional help from print house expert. I was explained that Mac graphic code traditionally runs on chip, while Windows renders using software codes, meaning there is no way to predict even help from 3rd party profiler. The answer I was given was to use Mac. This could explain why Mac is so machine dependent, and bad with backward compatibility. Meanwhile, I still believe there is no excuse that Finale never offered SaveAs older version format, do you not think? -- - Hiro Hiroaki Honshuku, A-NO-NE Music, Boston, MA <http://a-no-ne.com> <http://anonemusic.com> _______________________________________________ Finale mailing list [email protected] http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
