I think I get it now. The Bill Duncan fonts - for which I hadn't
thought to install the FAN files into 2k8, push other objects out of
the way when the FAN files are absent, so it looks as if normal
objects are also messed up when, in fact, only the non-Finale fonts
are the culprits.

I should also add this as a reminder to anyone upgrading to Finale

into place. What had confused me was the fact that there were normal
Maestro expressions that were also displaced. They are now appearing
correctly (along with the BD
Hi Darcy,
This affects Maestro expressions too, so I don't know - but I'll do
what you suggest, because it makes perfect sense for the BD fonts.
BTW, I'll be in NY from the 22nd to the 28th - playing at Kitano on
the 25th - with Don Friedman and Joe Hunt, and then recording with
them in
