I can't find how to renumber staff systems, so that I can get a wayward score back to 1,2,3,4 etc. order, starting at the top. Can it be done? I know a couple of ways, some involvingmore work than others. More information about why you want / need to do this would allow me to make a better

Ok. I'm already playing with page number offsets as well.. A shame that it can't be specified or at least follow the offset page number to determine left and right rather than the real page number. Ah, but one can specify the offset page. When one defines a text block containing a page number,

Re: [Finale] sending parts via email

Greetings, I need to send about 40 individual parts via email. My plan is to save the files as .pdfs and then send them. My question is: Can I send all 40 parts in 1 large mailing, or do I need to send each part separately? I know how to do the latter, but if I can send them in a bulk
