I don't doubt your observation, but it does show incompetence on the

that knows a damned thing about PostScript (unlike on the Mac, where
it's fundamental to the OS). The only part of the OS that knows
anything about PS at all is the printer driver. The only thing about
printer drivers that has changed in Windows is the new driver model,
introduced first in Windows ME and Win2K. That was *1999*, nearly
EIGHT YEARS AGO, and they just made it marginally workable in Finale
2K6, if I'm remembering correctly.
I take everything back. I was under the impression that it was at least
partly due to some changes in the operating system, but I had no idea
they were introduced so long ago.
I certainly wasn't trying to defend MM on long standing bugs like this one.
I am a Mac person, and mind you, we had some struggles with EPS from
Finale in OSX.
