Re: Some chords not printing
LEckerling,
Instead of attaching a graphic, could you attach a (small) Finale sample .musx document that shows the problem?
With an actual Finale document to examine someone might be able to find the culprit.

Re: Difference between "measure 1" and "measure #1"
Welcome to the forum! There are Measure Numbers, and there are Measure Numbers. 1) Finale needs to “keep track of” a document’s measures.
