A Mac user tells me this PDF:

shows up with weird characters. Generally, I've had no troubles
getting PDFs to her via my website, but this has happened once
before. She said it was some problem with the rests of something
(granted, it's a first draft, without proper editing -- I'm arranging
a 7-part texture for playing by five viols).

Are Mac users seeing proper noteheads/rests?


In Preview it looks fine to me. In Adobe Reader there is the usual on- screen weirdness of thick and thin staff lines, but that is onscreen only.

What version of Adobe Reader is she using? I understand older versions won't read PDF files correctly all the time.

Another issue, did you create this PDF file on a computer other than the one that the Finale file was created on? There might be font issues if the version of the Finale fonts is not exactly the same.
