Hmm. . . This is the only way I have worked with Finale (Mac) since, I think 3.7? Or whenever it was that Finale introduced the graphic tool, which has been terrific at exporting pages as EPS. Once my pages are individual EPS files, I avoided the whole problem of Mac's page layout by using Pagemaker (my last Classic program). Then it is easy to do all kinds of layout things -- and Pagemaker is wonderful at communicating with my HP5000. I set up Pagemaker to make links to the EPS files, so whenever I make corrections, Pagemaker automatically grabs the updated EPS file. As for paper: my local print shop is happy to order enough 24x36 paper for me to make a ream of 12x18 paper (I order as I need it, a ream at a time, and they do the cutting for free). I use this for two-up double-sided printing, folded in half to become a 9x12 booklet. I get "natural color," opaque, 80lb, laserprinter paper. It looks great, and is not expensive. All the printing is a snap in Pagemaker. Needless to say, I won't be able to finish any projects in 2004 until they fix the EPS export.
