Is there a simple way (plugin or function I've missed) to split, for example, the 3rd movement of a multi-movement file into its own separate Finale file, preserving layout? Basically, the opposite of ScoreMerger... ___ Finale mailing list

But that destroys the page layout. This is an orchestra piece with manually vertical spacing on every system. On Sun, Oct 20, 2013 at 10:53 AM, Michael Mathew mmathew_musicp...@yahoo.com wrote: That is the solution I always use! Michael Mathew mmathew_musicp...@yahoo.com
