In Score Manager/File Info

in the field Subtitle, I write some words, but, they don't appear on the score, maybe beacuse I deleted for another score.

No problem for a new score.

Is it possible to recuperate the ability in a field belonging to FILE INFO?

I appreciate your valuable help

Yes, it is possible.

In this example, let us say that you want to use the contents from the File Info field Subtitle.

You insert the “placeholder” for Subtitle in this way:
Text menu > Inserts > Subtitle

See the attached Finale 2012 document where the “placeholders” are used in a text block, in an expression, and in a staff name.
Try this:
Open the attached document.
Go to the File Info chiclet, and change the contents in the various text fields, and notice what happens in the score.
