Chuck,
If text is the greatest of the two I would use a word processor and
import
the music as graphics. If music is the predominant thing on the
page I might
do it in Finale, depends on the project.
Test is the greater, and I m familiar with importing music graphics
into text docs, so that is not the issue.
You could capture a graphic of a word processing page and import the
resulting graphic into Finale.
I will try that, just so see if it works easily, but I do have
Acrobat, so I can merge pdfs, and that will probably do the trick if
importing the graphic of the wp page proves problematic.
Thanks,
Carl, Vince and Aaron
If you are doing a lot of this and mixing sources,
maintaining constant font size might be a bit of a challange but if
that's not a
concern, it is doable. You could also export to PDF from multiple
sources
(Finale and wordprocessing) and combine pages from each is a single
PDF
document.

Collective wise ones:
What is the best way to create a page of performance notes that
includes text instructions and small (one measure) musical excerpts?
Can a word processing document (formatted with musical inserts) be
dropped into a Finale page in toto? I have not had to do this before
and am looking for advice.
TIA
