Is it possible to print multiple layers on one same arrangement in PrintMusc 2011a?

Yes. There should be no problems with that. They will all print in black, regardless of the on-screen colors.

Okay then I seem to be missing something I am only getting one layer on my document. Some (any) guidance would be appreciated.

Can you post the document? You have to ZIP it to upload to the forum.

It looks like you had Show Active Layer Only turned on, in the Document menu. Uncheck that, and you will see both layers, and it should print correctly.

In measure one, the two layers are properly separated. But in all the other measures, it looks like you have the layer 2 notes duplicated in layer 1. Is that deliberate?

Yes.

I am moving notes from from one layer to the other.


Thanks this worked. Much appreciated.
