I don't want to edit a default file, I want to replace it with my default file. Otherwise I've got to start again every time there is a new Finale.

Re: [Finale] Arrgghh! Default file location problems.
Yes, but re-creating your default file from scratch in each new version is actually a good idea. It's a huge pain, of course, but it ensures that there are no conversion artifacts.

I respond: That's what I did. Started fresh with the original Maestro Font Default from Finale 2011 (although at this point I don't remember which one from it's many locations). I have some templates in the template folder in my user folder's Music Files, and Finale reads them just fine. But it won't find my default file. Arrgghh!

Re: [Finale] Arrgghh! Default file location problems.
I hear you. But I'm not sure that it's such a good idea to try to use files created with older versions of Finale in newer versions. I got into trouble doing this a few versions back, and since then have made a point of taking an hour to edit the fresh new default file in each new version. Since then no more problems.

[Finale] Resizing staves maintaining vertical layout?
Can anyone suggest another way to do this - I want to maintain the vertical layout on the page, but increase the size of each staff. Presently I've been doing this by changing the % of each staff using the % tool, but it's rather tedious, especially for a large orchestral score...

Re: [Finale] Resizing staves maintaining vertical layout?
It pushes everything down, i.e. makes space for the resized staves. What I want is to increase the size of the staff but maintaining each staff position on the page.

Re: [Finale] Resizing staves maintaining vertical layout?
I'm not sure that's possible in one step because of how Finale treats the space between systems. It should be possible to do the whole document by resizing staff system then altering system margins. I have to do this for page 1 then for all the other pages together, due to title etc on page 1. Steve P.

Please be aware that what you're doing is not the same as a system resize, since staff resizing will keep the staff name sizes and such. What you seem to want to do is a 2-step process (and perhaps the use of a calculator): 1. Resize the systems (using system resizing) 2. Mark all the staves in the document in page view and then use Staff/Respace Staves...
