Re: [Finale] PDF EXPORT missing fonts

2015-10-20 Thread Douglas Brown
I second Lee's recommendation for Bullzip as your new, free pdf maker.  I've 
always found the default pdf programs from Finale, Microsoft, and other add-ons 
to random software to be buggy.  I've tried other free programs, yet Bullzip 
remains the cleanest, easiest one to use.

Lee Actor:

Possibly the fonts aren't recognized by Windows, though Finale can obviously
access them; check Control Panel->Appearance and Personalization->Fonts to
see if they are listed; if not, you could try installing them from the File
menu.

You should be aware that the pdf export feature in WinFin2012c has a bug
that generates extraneous characters, usually at the bottom of pages
containing triplets.  I reported this bug to Makemusic in Nov. 2013; it's a
known bug in the 3rd party pdf export engine they use, and to the best of my
knowledge it has not been fixed in Fin2014 to date.  You might consider
using one of the many available "pdf printer" products, which install as a
printer driver and enable pdfs to be produced from any application which can
print.  I've tried many of them, and my current favorite is Bullzip
(http://bullzip.com/products/pdf/info.php).  It's fast, full-featured,
produces very small file sizes, and is solid as a rock.  Even better, it's
free for individual use.

One other thing: the Finale pdf export, in addition to being buggy, produces
files 5-6x bigger than any other pdf tool I've used.

O the Knowledgeable ones!

I have never before encountered this one:

Fin2012 Win10

When I export Finale score as PDF, I get the following message
  The following fonts are used in this document but are not currently
available. They will be replaced by system fonts.

Engraver Font Set
Engraver Text T
Engraver Font Extras

And the PDF doc is of course total gibberish. The fonts are all sitting
nicely in the Fonts folder, as they are supposed too. Reboot did nothing.

Please help!

Re: [Finale] Transfer scroll view staff spacing to page view

Eventually found it again:
Staff tool. Respace staves.
There's a box to tick, bottom right, after setting the spacing:
  "Set to scroll view spacing". Simple! I'd love to find a way to set that 
as my default, but haven't managed that yet.

Finale 2014 annoys me pretty much on a daily basis still, after months of 
use. I expect quite a lot of my frustrations stem from importing sometimes 
very old files, but I particularly dislike having Finale dictate where 
expressions get attached to. I just want to position them to suit my 
personal style.
