I don't know if this makes any difference: for postscript printer I use Adobes generic driver. I use Illustrator 10 and Finwin 2003. All I can say is that when I open the Finale generated eps in Illustrator it shows up just fine. Btw I did save the files as version 3.0/3.2 Illustrator eps, no preview and no thumbnail. These files converted fine to Acrobat and worked great in MSWord (XP). However, I haven't tried to use these files in Finale. The final output in my last project was pdfs for publication. One more thing: all my fonts were postscript fonts (T1) and I don't use ATM.
