thanks for the tip. However, when I export EPS in Finale and import it into Illustrator 10, the fonts will not load, and the music looks like... well, you can imagine. So when I save the file in illustrator, this will not change.
So I will be looking for a way to get the fonts at least so far as Illustrator, and than your workaround might work.
Thanks, and further help appreciated
Kurt

I have just finished a project that included eps graphic exported from Finale 2003 in WinXP. The following is a description of a successful use of eps in WinXP. This was posted earlier on the Finale Forza-talk list.
It's a known fact that eps export doesn't work as it should in the Finale-WinXp combination. However I have found a way which makes this work - although there is a little glitch. After exporting the eps graphic from Finale (do not include fonts and preview) import this file in Illustrator (Adobe) and save it as an Illustrator eps file. This will include fonts for further Acrobat handling. The glitch is that I have found that a few chord symbols are bad aligned. But this is easily fixed in Illustrator.
