This would be helpful to me (and others) with regard to the multiple conversions that Finale files are often submitted to (pdf, ps, gif, resizing, etc). Sometimes a small change in staff size puts the line thickness below a threshold at which a line shoes clearly in another format. Andrew's suggestions would help with this.
