Hi, Finale-Folks...

I'm just at the beginning of my next big project, a long-ish full
orchestra arrangement.  I've set up the entire document (266 bars) and
scored the first 8 bars.  Now the real work begins.  What I'd like to do
is print out the first big chunk of the piece (121 bars) and blow it up
on a xerox machine so I can do some pencil sketches.  I'd like those
pencil-sketch pages to have 8 bars per page.  Is there some way to
automatically get 8 bars per page without having to manually move bars
around from page to page?
Hi,

yes, there is. It's called "Fit Music" and it's in the Mass Mover menu; here's a way to do it (in Finale 2002, 2003 should be the same):

1) choose the Mass Mover Tool
2) select the region you want to be affected
3) choose Fit Music in the Mass Mover menu (Ctrl-M on Windows)
4) write in the number of measures you want in each system
5) hit OK

done.
