Re: [Finale] Exporting parts to PDF

2018-04-02 Thread Lee Actor
Whenever the built-in Finale pdf exporter is mentioned, I feel obligated to
point out that a) it has serious bugs, printing unwanted characters in
unexpected locations, esp. on pages with tuplets; and b) it produces
enormous file sizes, up to 10x other print-to-pdf solutions.  The pdf export
is from a 3rd party developer, Makemusic knows it's broken, and they
continue to include it in Finale anyway.

The pdf printer I always recommend for Windows is Bullzip.  It's extremely
stable, very fast, and produces the smallest file sizes of any such product
I've surveyed -- and I've tried pretty much all of them.

Subject: [Finale] Exporting parts to PDF

Hi all,

I just took advantage of the sale at MM to upgrade to Fin25, and I'm
exploring some of the new features. (And wondering why they haven't improved
the UI in 5 years, but that's a different issue.)

I noticed the new Export to PDF feature, which is quicker and easier than
printing to a PDF driver, but I was dismayed to find that it only exports
the current part or score. Did they really not implement an Export Linked
Parts to PDF feature, as they did with Export Linked Parts to MusicXML? Is
there a plugin or FinaleScript that will provide this functionality?

Thanks,
Aaron.

I agree. I've used numerous PDF printers, both free and paid, and the only one
that's produced flawless (and compact) results has been Bullzip. Now using it
on Windows 10 Pro 64-bit with Finale 25.

Re: [Finale] Exporting parts to PDF

2018-04-02 Thread Robert Patterson
Someone on this list recommended "Export Pages" in the Graphics Tool (Mac).
I've had very good luck with that. It usually produces significantly
smaller PDFs and has true blacks instead of gray scale. So far I haven't
noticed any glitches in the output, but perhaps others have?

Export Pages shares the same issue that (Win) Export To PDF does: you have
to export each part one-at-a-time. I have mitigated this by automating
(Page View->Graphics Tool->Export Pages->OK Button) in a single keyboard
macro. Combined with another macro that advances to the next part (or
score) this makes for a fairly efficient workflow to export all parts.

Martin, there are a number of macro programs available. Currently I use yKey
, but in the old days I used
QuickKeys .

Re: [Finale] Exporting parts to PDF

2018-04-02 Thread Aaron Sherber
I own Acrobat, so I'm not looking for a new PDF driver, but your
observation about file sizes is interesting. Finale appears to be using PDF
XChange, which is a fairly well known solution. It may be that Finale is
not using the most compact settings, and they don't expose any of that for
users to tweak.

Thanks,
Aaron.

Re: [Finale] Exporting parts to PDF

2018-04-02 Thread Aaron Sherber
I just tried Export Pages, and I'm not seeing any differences between that
and Export as PDF -- they're using the same driver, and the files are
binary identical except for trivial differences (timestamp, font name
munging).

You're right that it's not a big deal to set up macros to do this, but it's
too bad that MM didn't include it by default. Seems like it would be a
fairly common use case.

Thanks,
Aaron.
