Anyone know of a way to universally (for a whole score) reset the 'per system' chord baseline (The 'third triangle' in the pic below).

Measure numbers house style?
I have a particular style of measure numbers that I want to use for particular client. It's just a combination of font, font size, prefix, suffix, and options about how often to show a region. I've set up a file to use as a template, that I import music XML files into from pieces created by others. ...

Re: Mac: PDFWriter issues
OK, so I've got a reasonable Finalescript working method with Export pages > PDF now. I don't like the fact that I can't specify a static output folder (although I can override this with the "Default Folder" app) or that I have to either [a] open all the files (for the process open files choice) or ...

Re: Mac: PDFWriter issues
Dropping a stack of finale files onto PDF writer icon on the dock prints the files faster than any other method. I'm talking about dropping 150+ files at a time. Going through the menus for this is tedious, even if macro automated, and I've always found using finalescript for this to be flakey. For ...

Re: Mac: PDFWriter issues
"I understand that Adobe and other advanced programs might do more after the fact" - not sure what you mean, and you'd have to be specific. It's quicker. I've never had a problem with the results and have hundreds of books published. bound, printed and distributed via this method. They're totally vi...

Re: Mac: PDFWriter issues
It's a 'virtual printer' that doesn't print to paper, it's a software engine that 'prints' to PDF. So you go through the standard 'Print' menus, specify PDF writer as the printer, and it generates PDFs to a folder on your system instead of sending the info to a hardware printer. It's a LOT faster an...

Re: Mac: PDFWriter issues
Thanks for your reply Buon. I've worked around the problem now with a combination of... [1] Using Automator to create a service that open the files or folder/multiple-folder contents in Finale. [2] A quickeys shortcut that loops through each of the open files, printing them (including choosing the c...

Mac: PDFWriter issues
Mac specific convo: I've been using the virtual PDF printer "PDFwriter" by Lisanet ( https://sourceforge.net/projects/pdfwriterformac/ ) for some time with great results. It's been particularly useful when dropping multiple (sometimes huge amounts of) finale files directly onto the PDFwriter printer...
