Hi. I believe this is not possible, based on previous discussions, but I wanted to ask to be sure.
Is it possible to set all elements in Finale (like noteheads, expressions, articulations, but also staff lines, clefs, stems, and so on) to a colour other than black (or to several other colours) and export to EPS?
I understand that this can be done for things like noteheads but I have not managed to change the colour of staff lines or clefs, for instance.
This is for Finale 2007.
Thanks.

I think you would have to change the colors in a program like Inkscape. Finale doesn't have the flexibility.

Hi Mike. Thanks for the reply. That's also what I gathered, that it's not possible. I had asked a related question in the past (old forum) but wanted to be sure before I embark on that work outside of Finale. Thanks again.
