Can someone tell me the exact steps to get Finale to properly export a PDF or PS file with embedded EPS graphics?
I'm still trying to figure out whether I should save the EPS (from InDesign) with a preview or not — or which kind of preview — but it seems I can't win with any settings. I've tried the following: — Save EPS with TIFF preview from ID. Place in Finale. I see the low-res TIFF preview in Finale, and it prints that way (to printer, to "Save as PDF", and to "Save as Adobe PDF" ). — Save EPS without TIFF preview from ID. Place in Finale. I see the placeholder with the file name instead. That gets printed and PDFed. — "Save as PostScript" instead from Finale (as I understand this to be the general workaround for EPS trouble), then either let Preview or Acrobat make a PDF. The EPS now looks as it should, but the page size is off. It looks like 8.5x11 (parts are 10x13, so it's getting cut off on the sides), even though I don't have anything set to 8.5x11 that I'm aware of : Page Setup is 10x13, Page Format in Finale is 10x13 — where else is there a page size to set??? Getting very frustrated and don't have much time — hopefully the workaround is not too time-consuming as I don't want to jump through hoops with over 40 parts. Using Finale Mac 2009, under Snow Leopard. Thanks for any help, Rich _______________________________________________ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
