i used to run finale on my pc and i could select mulitple files in the file menu and select "print" instead of "open" and all the files would print in one click. now i run finale '06 on my mac and it doesn't seem that the same option is available. now i have to open sixty different pages and print each one separately. any ideas?

You could try this : drag all the icons of all the files you want to print and drop them over your printer's icon on the desktop. It normally works, but I occasionally saw Finale quit in the operation...
Or, still without launching Finale, select the files, and go to the File menu->Print.
