Re: [Finale] Image export / size / page size
First of all, I hope you're planning on using TIF files and not EPS... Why do you say this. Where is the problem with EPS files? It's not possible to specify the size of the output, but using a grid you can get a fairly precise idea of the size of your example. That's what I would do if I were able to export EPS files in Finale.

Because recent versions of Finale (Windows) can't export EPS files with embedded fonts (either in WinXP or Win2000). This has been broken for years, and MakeMusic has no idea when it will be fixed. If have managed to produce EPS files with embedded fonts, I, and many others, I assume, would be very grateful if you could post all relevant details: OS, version of finale, printer driver, settings.

[Finale] Image export / size / page size
Dear list members, I will have to produce a large amount of score examples for a book, which I intend to do with Finale (rather than scanning scores, drawing into them and preparing them in a picture editing program). My problem with the Grafics Tool is with the picture size. As far as I see it I can (with Finale 2001) export either a whole page or a section that I determine by drawing a rectangle with the mouse. For this last method I don't see any way to determine the size or the origin of the picture in a reasonable exact manner (i.e. by typing numbers of any kind or at least adjusting the rectangle afterwards). Is this true? As a workaround I thought of adjusting the page size and export the whole page, so I know exactly how large the picture is and which borders I have. But this seems to be messy either. As fas as I can see, I cannot change the size of an existing page (in order to adjust it to the example), but only for newly created pages. I would then have to measure my example, create a new page and copy the music to the new page. This seems to be a totally unacceptable behaviour. How do you produce score examples? Is there something important I am missing? Is there something significally improved in newer versions of Finale? (I don't use it as much, so I'd rather not spend so much money to upgrade it.
