So I would like to be able to have a few pages before the first page of score, and then start the score on page 1, with the first page number appearing on page 2. I much prefer to have it all as one file at the outset.
That way I can automate the process for each score more readily, with templates for title pages, instrumentations, notes, and page numbering.
