Finale Forum

Hello,
I am trying to print out my file for which I have put in a lot of hard work...
My work includes music and texts.

In a nutshell, the accompanying text appears OK in a Finale Notation file, but I need
to send it to people via the internet in pdf format.
The lyrics (but not the music) allways seem to get screwed up when I try to print the file in a pdf format.

I have been attemting to print it with the Microsoft Virtual Printer application that appears
in the Finale Program

I am a Finale 2010 user and my computer runs on W10.
Any help on this matter would be greatly appreciated.
TIA

The Finale PDF creator has been flawed since it was introduced. Try using the Graphics tool to export as a PDF, or, use one of the free PDF creation programs available online. When I was using Windows, PDF Creator was a good one.

Thanks a lot miker,
I am also attempting to create a file that must
combine a full Orchestra with at least 4 SATB voices
(It's for a large scale Opera).
I do not know how to proceed.
If I choose "full orchestra" in the file creator wizard,
I cannot add any real (ie. SATB) humans voices, only choir ahs...

Thanks in advance

Do you mean voices that sing the words? Finale can't do that.

And in my opinion, the oos and ahs are horrible. I always put my singers in as piano.

There is a program called Virtual Singer, at https://www.myriad-online.com/en/produc ... singer.htm

However, as I understand it, it needs a lot of tweaking to really make it sound human, and it’s not an easy process. Like fine-tuning human playback.

Hello again,
Yes, zuill, I would like to combine a choir with a full orchestral accompaniment, texts included for an Opera
If Finale cannot do this, do you known of another computer
program capable of doing this ? Perhaps Sibelius?
Thanks in advance.
