That's actually EVPU (ENIGMA Virtual Page Unit), but in all other respects the description is correct. EDU is a unit of duration (ENIGMA Durational Unit); 1024 EDUs is the rhythmic length of a quarter note. These ENIGMA units are peculiar to Finale alone; the only unit (that I know of) which is common to engravers in general is the staff space. -- Brad Beyenhof Real-time Finale discussion: http://www.finaleirc.com my blog: http://augmentedfourth.blogspot.com Silence will save me from being wrong (and foolish), but it will also deprive me of the possibility of being right. ~ Igor Stravinsky _______________________________________________ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
