Hi Crystal, You really do want to scan at least one or two typical pieces out of the 2000 they want to do to see how well this works. Or as Aaron suggested, the person making the request do it for you, and open it in Finale Notepad. It could save you or cost you time, depending on the music involved.
If you're on a PC, you can get the SharpEye and Dolet 30-day demos and use them with any version of Finale back to Finale 2000: http://store.recordare.com/software.html I think you're on a Mac, though. In that case, you might want to see what's available with demo versions of Finale 2003 and the full version of SmartScore. You might also be able to use the full version of SmartScore with your current version of Finale. If you're doing this many songs, I don't think you'll want the light version of any scanning program. You'll need the most industrial-strength scanning you can get, and see if it meets your needs. Good luck, Michael Good Recordare LLC _______________________________________________ Finale mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
