Re: [Finale] Scanning, what to do now?
My apologies -- I thought you had already upgraded to Finale v25. If you haven't already wasted your money on Finale25, then don't because it obviously won't offer you anything positive over what you're already doing. But there's no need to be snarky about it, apology or not. Just stick with what you've got since it's obviously working for you. David H.

Re: [Finale] Scanning, what to do now?
The scanner creates a tiff, right? If so, you file->import the tiff into Fin14.5. I believe the issue here is that MM inexplicably and inexcusably removed the tiff import from Fin25. But if you import it into Fin14.5 (or some earlier version), you then save it as musx (or mus). There is no need to go through a music xml step.

Yes, but how do you scan into Finale from a 3rd party scanner?
