The frame is unaffected, and there are no font-reinstallation issues (though I did in fact have to reinstall almost all my fonts when I upgraded Suitcase). My best guess is that Finale is now reading a different height to the font, so that the distance between lines is somewhat greater than before. Setting the line-spacing to 75% restores the original vertical positioning of the lines of text, but text so "fixed" appears vertically cramped compared to the original, so I assume that both the vertical size of the letters and the line spacing have been increased in the "sprawled" version. I emphasize that the horizontal appearance and spacing of the text are completely unaffected by this problem. -- Andrew Stiller Kallisti Music Press http://www.kallistimusic.com _______________________________________________ Finale mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
