Okay, that's an improvement. But it still isn't as convenient as the Graphics

Hi Robert,
I agree, it's an extra step, but since PDF export is very fast and
(mostly) reliable, whereas EPS export is very slow and buggy, it's
probably a *faster* extra step, and unlike EPS in FinMacOSX, PDF's are
WYSIWYG.
Of course, if you're importing into Word, the question is moot,
Well, for me this extra step is a killer.
Ideally FinMac should get PDF export capabilities in the graphics tool,
since PDF is the standard on MacOSX.

Hey guys,
In any Mac application (including Finale), the default window size is
usually the last window size. If you click the green zoom button so
that the window is maximized, then quit Finale and relaunch, the
(first) default window will also be maximized.

Maybe there is something I don't get. I work with Pagemaker (it would
be the same with InDesign) for the book layout. I use a default
document that has all the pages (eps) placed, so when I export eps
from Finale to Pagemaker, it links the eps automatically, and every

On a related note, our recent discussion about treble-clef cello
notation, I started transcribing a new piece last week that has
passages of treble clef in the cello with 8va also! And it quite
clearly translates into playing the treble clef notation at pitch,
There we have it. From the passage itself at the point seems to make
more sense to me but sul ponticello is not impossible. Judging from
other comments that would make more sense in the case of Boccherini,
being an Italian speaker.

I'm not sure I'm following you, Eric. I'm not familiar with PageMaker,
but any publishing app ought to be agnostic about file types. If it
can embed EPS, it should be able to embed other graphic types,
including PDF -- right?
Have you tried importing PDFs into PageMaker? If so, how does

The difference is that eps in Finale are single page files, and pdf
are multi-pages files. Multi-pages are less flexible and more
complicated to handle. It seems to be possible in pagemaker to work
with mult-pages files but it needs a lot more work than just placing
a generic eps link.

Eric, PDFs can be as many or as few pages as you want. It's just as
easy to create a single-page PDF as it is to create a single-page EPS.

The only way I can think of to create single-page PDF's is to print each
page one at a time. My recollection of creating EPS files is that you
can create a separate (single-page) EPS file for each page in a single

I don't know what Eric does, but I use PageMaker all the time to prepare
books. Many of them are instructionals, where the publisher will add a title
page, for example, and there will be lots of text; others will add
photographs. I can play with the layout of the book in PageMaker - changing
