Finale creates a 2-bit TIFF, that is, with only 2 colors (black and 
white). What you need to do is bump up the color depth. I usually 
bump up to 16 million colors, then resize for output and then gray 
scale it. The graphics I put up for the Dotted Slurs discussion were 
made in precisely that way.

I wish the color depth of the Finale TIFFs were something you could 
set, as it would make life *much* easier when exporting them.
