I strongly recommend making PDFs of all your files while you still can run Fin2k. Upgrading the files will almost certainly require extensive re-editing. I recently wanted to enlarge a Fin2k piece from 8.5x11 to 10x13. Ultimately it was quicker to enlarge the PDF rather than going back to the source Finale doc.
