Word is what I use, but other text applications should do the same.
As for Finale switching the text size: Did you paste to a text block where a
text of a given size had been deleted incompletely? Try pasting to a new text
block. If spaces or other invisible elements are left, the formatting stays in
the block.

That sounded like a good idea. Does it work for you with Word?
I don't use Word, being generally anti-Microsoft but unwilling
to switch allegiance to Mac for Finale. I've just tried doing
what you suggest in (Corel) Word Perfect. No problem in WP,
where I quickly made samples of my Copyright notice in Arial
14/10 point, 13/9 point and 12/8 point. I tried copying and
pasting the smallest. No problem with the process, but Finale
immediately changed it all to 12-point. :(
I might not find this quite so infuriating if I hadn't been
able to do it in Finale fifteen years ago the way I want now.
I feel as if I've just spent a lot of money on something that's
not yet fully fit for purpose.
Might my problems (there are others) be incompatibility between
Windows 8.1 and Finale 2014?
