Hi there, when I export my files to .pdf and then open them in Acrobat Reader, under document properties the title given seems to be a random collection of characters. I can't see how to specify the document properties when exporting to .pdf from Finale. I read somewhere that in an older version of Finale there's an additional properties box when exporting, but I can't see that in the latest version.

What am I missing?!?

How are you creating your PDF? People have reported errors in Finale's Export to PDF.

You might try using one of the free PDF creators available online, or in Finale, use the graphics tool to create it.

On Windows, the Graphics tool export pages has problems, though more subtle that this. People have good luck with CutePDF.
