Re: [Finale] Parts have different page size than score (Mac)

2012-01-21 Thread Darcy James Argue
I haven't actually tried this, so I don't know whether it works, but isn't this 
problem theoretically solved by selecting the "Use Finale's Page Orientation 
instead of printer's Page Orientation" option?

You guys are SO picky.

[Finale] 2012 not working PC & MAC - SOLVED

2012-01-21 Thread Howey, Henry
There was a problem with GARRITAN INSTANT ORCHESTRA.

Now both work. The COMB2 is still not working on MAC. I suspect a bad CML file.

Hi Robert,

This is an annoyance up with which we have put as long as I can remember, and I 
don't think there's a way around it.  Raymond answered a different question.  
It's the printing that requires the change, not the creation of the different 
sizes within Finale, and I have long wondered why MM doesn't automate this 
interruption of the printing process.  Perhaps there are some conditions in 
which the Finale page size and the printer set up should not match, but I can't 
think of why that should be.

Personal note:  I know you are going to be losing Susanna and Barry and will be 
likely to miss them, but I also know that the move will be good for them (and 
that they will miss their friends in Memphis).

In FinWin 2011: Under "Document / Page Format" one can choose
different page formats for score and parts.  You will then have to
"Manage parts / Generate Parts" to see the difference.

[Finale] Parts have different page size than score (Mac)

2012-01-21 Thread Robert Patterson
Is there anyway to have parts and score have different pages sizes without
having to go in and change the Mac printer page size to match each time you
print one or the other? This is a long-standing issue for me, and I haven't
figured out if it is possible.

Re: [Finale] Changing patches in the new Finale 2012 world

2012-01-21 Thread Robert Patterson
Actually my legacy files (which use Smartsynth) play back fine in Fin12. I
am not picky about playback, and if it were up to me Makemusic would not
have expended one minute improving playback beyond Smartsynth  (because it
has been at the expense of so much that I do care about). Doubtless many of
you and others do not agree. Haha.

Still, I would like to hear a difference between pizz and arco, and if
after enduring 5 cycles of what (for my purposes) are predominately useless
upgrades they have made it more difficult to achieve, I really do have to
wonder about their priorities. The main thing that has prompted me to
upgrade to Fin12 (from Fin08) is the Unicode support, which I must admit is
fantástico. (And of course there are some other changes that I like.)
