Hey, you don’t even have to edit the part before you print it (though it is
highly recommended). Often there are collisions and bad system breaks that need
correction in raw parts.
As of Finale 2007, we have linked parts, which is to say all the parts reside
in the same file as the score. The previous method of making parts from a score
involved “extracting”, which was creating completely different files, each with
just a single instrument staff in it. Linked parts are automatically created in
>2007 files from the Setup Wizard with no extra input from you, so if you ever
open up an older file, you will have to Create the parts.
You can still extract the part if you need to, though I jump through hoops to
avoid that. Linked parts are SO much better. Typically, I will extract a part
if something needs to be radically different from the score, or if I ever have
grace notes in a two-instrument staff (which is a stupid, stupid bug that is
now TWELVE years old!)
When you hit Print, you have a dialogue box with the score and all the linked
parts in it, so you select what you want to print. You don’t have to be in the
part.
