Those who may be able to give a well-informed guess (unfortunately, I'm not likely to be one), will probably need to know at the very least both your computer operating system and which version of Finale.

Since it appears you're using non-standard notation, it may have to do with that. If you can attach your file here, or at least the page in question, someone may be able to investigate.

Simple answer is you have a font problem but that is just a guess.
