No, I haven't. > Could this be iKey-related, or is it something else? I couldn't say, but I haven't run across this. Admittedly, I haven't used MacFin2004 for too many "serious" things yet, but I have spent some time with it (I even ordered the manual in print). > I get the feeling most people on this list are steering well clear of > MacFin2004. It's not that I'm steering clear of it; I actually haven't started many new engraving projects since I got it. All continuing projects are still going on in the version I used to start them. In any case, I found that the Art department at work can extract their EPS files from the OSX-created PDFs (that is, since the font pack came out), so the lack of EPS files is no longer a problem for me. Actually, I recently found out that the Preview app in Panther (10.3) can view PS and EPS files. Can it convert PDF files into EPS? That might be a good work-around for all of the EPS problems, if people haven't checked whether their EPS-using clients can accept PDF files. > I am really, really, really looking forward to the patch, although I > fear no amount of patching will redeem MacFin2004. Fingers crossed for > a better MacFin2005. I fear the same, but in any case I'm enjoying FinMac2004 despite the issues associated with it. I still need to learn the new Expression system a little better, though... -- Brad Beyenhof [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ Finale mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
