See attachment.

I have written a drum part. The measure numbering (as indicated by the numbers at the beginning of each staff) is OK until we get past measure 31. Letter-D should be measure 35, followed by D-2 which is 36; then begin the next line with measure 37. But the software has numbered it as 36. From then on all the numbers are off by one.

What could be the cause of this, and how would I fix it?

If I could just hide all the numbers, that would suit me, but I don't think PrintMusic will let me do that.

ernesto,
I have no idea why that's happening. I would send that one in to tech support.

You can hide all of the numbers. Measure tool>Select All, Measure menu>Hide Numbers.

Thanks anyway. I solved the problem by going into scroll view, copying the entire piece, then pasting it onto a new document. The numbering is correct now.
