[Finale] Spacing issue for dotted rest

2016-07-27 Thread Girard Bowe

Here is the latest response from MakeMusic regarding my complaint about the 
eighth rest dot spacing in JazzFont:

"At the risk of going into semantics, bug fixes are defined as the software not 
operating as designed. The augmentation dots appear next to notes and rests at 
a distance that is defined in the settings - this works exactly as designed. 
Your request is to add functionality that allows this distance to be set 
differently for rests than it is for notes."

JW Change has the ability to do this, but it is cumbersome, and I have 
forgotten how to use it. I'm hoping someone else will request this "feature" 
and that someone will remember the JW Change workaround so that I won't have to 
change each instance individually.

After making this complaint for several years to MakeMusic, this is the first 
cogent response I've received from them. Now I know the spacing issue is not a 
bug!

Thanks for sharing my misery!

PS - maybe we can get them to provide a JazzFont "Z" that doesn't look like a 2.

Re: [Finale] Adding an identifying mark to a PDF

2016-07-27 Thread Chuck Israels
Bill Duncan provided me with a text block “tag” that prints the date my Finale 
files are printed.  Maybe I might be able to figure out how to extract it from 
my template and send it, if that would help, or even just send a Final file 
with the embedded text block from which you could copy it.  I have no idea how 
to do that separately on a PDF.

i add a bookmark to the PDF documents i prepare (title pages + score) --
[compiled 27 july 2016] -- and edit out the bookmark function (so nothing
happens when you click on it), and set up the file to always show the bookmarks
panel.  this is in addition to the indication which edition the score is
[edition: may 2016] on the copyright page i include in the title pages.

It needs to be on every page and be visible. I should add that a Mac tool
is preferable.

What about adding a comment? I think you need Big Brother Acrobat for 
that, though.

[Finale] Complex print question from a friend in a time pinch

2016-07-27 Thread Klaus Smedegaard Bjerre
My friend arranges and conducts for a US-based band camp. He wants a script or 
plugin type solution, which I cannot point him to. I even doubt it exists. But 
there are people much smarter than me on this list:

Anyone know whether Finale has something like a Print Changes Only setting, 
where you can hit Print and only get a new score and the parts that changed 
since the last saved version? When in a big hurry I don't like having to go 
into the Print dialog and select parts manually. Sometimes you have massive 
changes in a number of parts but only one or two small ones in others, which 
can be easy to forget in a high pressure situation. 

Also, if only small revisions were made to a part so that, say one page was 
affected, but the layout of the pages was not, it would be great if Finale 
could simply reprint the changed pages automatically rather that having to 
manually fish out each page to print. If you have over a hundred pages of parts 
and score and you made changes that affect twenty specific pages and none of 
the others whatsoever, Print Changes Only would be a huge time saver. This 
matters when your players are sitting there waiting for you.

Can Finale be made to do this, or is there a plug-in for such 
functionality?(end of quote)
