That is, what program you use to create it is completely irrelevant, as long as the program creates properly encoded files in that format. Part of David's properly encoded files is that you save them as uncompressed TIF format files -- any compression in a TIF file will result in Finale not being able to use it. -- David H.

I'd have to research it myself, as my free tools are terribly out of date, and I've been a licensed PaintShop Pro user for about 12 years, so haven't needed to find new tools. Off the top of my head, there's the Gimp, but that's a lame attempt to replace Photoshop, and has hideous user interface. I'd never use it for real work. I think David Bailey mentioned a free graphics editor. Perhaps others could chime in, but if you're not satisfied with that, I'm willing to put my money where my mouth is and spend some time researching it. Actually I hadn't mentioned one, but Artweaver is free and is much more capable than MSPaint. It also includes the ability to select the compression to be used (including none) on TIF files. It can be downloaded at: http://www.artweaver.de/index.php?en_version It's more powerful than MSPaint so it'll take a short while to get used to all the adjustable parameters but it seems easy enough to figure out and the price is terrific. -- David H.

[Finale] Re: Importing Graphics
Thanks for the help! Finale wants an uncompressed TIFF file and GIMP (which I'd long ago installed and forgotten) can generate one in a single click. Daniel Wolf ___ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale

[Finale] inputting guitar tab
I hope Claire won't mind me introducing her, because I'm going to anyway. Claire is one of my former students and is having some trouble inputting guitar tab in Finale 2003. She is a terrific violinist, but it has nothing to do with me, because I'm a Piano and Musicianship [music theory] teacher. Fire away, Claire.

[Finale] Re-intro time?
Friends, Back in December 2004 - January 2005, there was a thread devoted to bios, who we were, and where we are. Is it time to revisit this thread?

Re: [Finale] Re-intro time?
I'd be happy to know more about the people with whom I correspond. I visit websites whenever they are posted in the signatures. The URL below will tell more about my history than some might care to explore. Anyway, I'm happy to share it and curious about others. I've met some (including Jari Williamson on a trip that took me to Gothenburg a few years ago), and it has always been interesting. I've made a few friends and learned some things about the folks who have been generous with their help.

Re: [Finale] Re-intro time?
Hi Chuck and others. I've found Finale list to be a terrifically helpful bunch of folk. I have not yet had a problem that someone else didn't know the solution to. And I usually get interesting answers to non-Finale questions, too. Can't resist asking somethingn that has intrigued me, that I have not yet foundn the answer to: I hope I'm not making an idiot of myself here! It seems that the modes predate keyboards. If this is correct, why is it that the standard modes Ionian Dorian Phrygian Lydian Mixolydian and Aeolian fit so beautifully on the white keys of our keyboards? You would think that they had been derived from the keyboard, they sit there so easily.
