Thanks so much. That was it -- I had use Last Saved Settings in the
printing dialog box. Then my webpage said it wasn't found but I realized
it was an upper/lowercase issue. So much to figure out.

I have Mac OS 10.5.4, Finale 2008. I have a little clarinet solo that
I was printing on tabloid, landscape, 2 up. In Finale I printed to
PDF. Then I realized that I really wanted the .pdf to be on letter
size, portrait. I redid it, overlying the first one. In Preview it
looks fine.
However I am using an open source store and I uploaded the .pdf to
the server. However, when you click on the link to View the Sample,
it is displayed in Preview on tabloid, landscape!!! I deleted the
.pdf on my computer and on the server and started over and got the
same result. I have about half of the songs are letter and half are
tabloid, landscape. It is nuts.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

I have 10.4, but I think the issue might be similar.
You have to make sure that you select Page Setup and set the page size
and orientation before printing. Then when you print, even if you are
only using the PDF writer, you have to make sure the settings are for
printing to letter size, portrait. On my Mac, I have set the Print and
Fax options to use the last printer selected, so that means it retains
the settings as well. If I have previously printed 2-up to tabloid
landscape, that is what it remembers for the next time and the PDFs
inherit this, too.
Most of the time, that is. There seems to be a separate issue that if
I verify the settings, they are inherited. If I DON'T check them, then
sometimes they are inherited, sometimes they aren't.
