2008-02-06 Thread Darcy James Argue

Hi all,

Just curious what type of paper finish people here prefer for parts --  
smooth or vellum?


Cheers,

I use the same type for everything because smooth erases easier-

[Finale] Rhythmic notation staff style behaviour?

2008-02-06 Thread Christopher Smith

FinMac 2008a

I seem to remember in previous versions, when I applied Rhythmic  
Notation to a measure, it changed what was in Layer 1 to stemmed  
slashes, and if I had notes in other layers it also DID NOT shift any  
Layer 1 rests up by six steps, but left them in the staff.


In version 2008a, (and all other versions I have going back to 2005!)  
however, Rhythmic Notation staff style seems to MOVE the layer 1  
rests up if I have anything in other layers. I don't remember  
Rhythmic Notation working this way! Did I really go back  
uncomplaining and shift EVERY Rhythmic Notation layer 1 rest back  
into the staff before? I am quite sure that I always had Layer 1 set  
to shift rests, etc, up by six steps, and that Rhythmic Notation was  
smart enough NOT to shift the rests, but apparently I am mistaken!


Does this strike anyone else as stupid and useless? I notice that  
newer versions of FInale are now carrying extra versions of Slash  
Notation and Rhythmic Notation to allow items in other layers to  
show, but what is the use if the rests get moved? I am thinking of  
drum and piano parts in jazz charts.


I must be getting old. Gotta keep up the folates...

Darcy,

I use a smooth finish ivory paper in what seems an ideal weight.  I  
buy part of a bulk order that Dave Berger makes every so often, and  
I'm sure, if you like this paper (you can check out his parts at one  
of his gigs or rehearsals - or chez lui), you can be included in the  
purchase consortium.

[Finale] Importing eps graphics from Adobe CS3

2008-02-06 Thread Brian Williams
I'm having problems viewing eps graphics that were created in the latest
version of Adobe Creative Suite 3 into Finale 2007 documents. The graphics
were sent to me by a graphic designer who recently upgraded to Leopard and
Adobe CS3. They show up on screen as blank white rectangles with the word
(embedded) in the middle, but they seem to print just fine.
Previously-saved eps graphic files that were saved in older versions of
Illustrator were black in the transparent background areas but the image was
at least visible. Has anyone else had issues with importing eps files saved
in CS3 in Finale 2007? The graphic designer tells me that Finale is the
*only* application he's heard of that has problems with viewing these files.

Brian
