Re: [Finale] Part prints at 1/16 size of page
I can now recreate this error at will: 1) I had created a new stave and copied the contents across from the original - but I do not think this plays a part in the following steps. 2) Generate part, with multimeasure rest creation ticked. 3) Part generated, but multimeasure rests have not been created. 4) Print to PDF (Nitro Pro 9) and it works. 5) Manually force the creation of multimeasure rests. 6) Print to PDF (Nitro Pro 9) and it creates ~1/16 sized output. Now can somebody suggest a solution?

Re: [Finale] Part prints at 1/16 size of page
Very interesting. I had something similar happen a couple of times. I always "print" my Finale material to PDF using PDFCreator. I never print directly from Finale. There were a couple of times where one part out of 20 was super small in the PDF. If I would run it a second time, it always came out correctly, so I never picked up the pattern. I had always assumed it was a quirk in PDFCreator, but now it seems that it was actually a Finale bug. On a separate note, I have started compiling a list of the most annoying bugs in Finale in the hopes that maybe these will be addressed in 2014.5. At first, I was intending to offer a top-10 list for consideration, but since I have been writing these down, there are way more than 10 really annoying bugs. Yesterday I was working with lyrics which is almost completely dysfunctional in F2014. For example, if you enter "I" a a word in a lyrical line, the cursor jumps backwards two syllables and messes everything up. And there are several other really bad bugs in lyrics. Has anyone else compiled such a list? Maybe I will share mine once I have it organized.

Re: [Finale] Part prints at 1/16 size of page
This bug plagued me very often when I was using FinWin 2007. I recall printing to CutePdf to get by it. It still crops up occasionally in subsequent versions including FinWin 2014. Only a select few of us have had it happen! I will remember Jim Williams's suggestion now. Before that, there was some discussion to the effect that clearing and redoing multimeasure rests helped. I have done this and it seemed to help, but if Jim is right, it could have been timing that made the difference.

Re: [Finale] Part prints at 1/16 size of page
If my memory doesn't fail, the problem is somehow connected to printing when an auto-save is occurring. If you are going to mass-print, you might consider turning off auto-save, closing/relaunching, then printing. Sent from my iPad, so pardon the typos. > On Aug 6, 2015, at 12:47 PM, Kenneth Moore wrote: > > On Wed, 5 Aug 2015 19:29:51, > > Michael Lawlorwrote: > >> [Finale 2009] >> I have just created a score and extracted the parts; they all print okay >> except one part, which only fills about 1/16 of the page (i.e. A8 >> instead of A4).

What have I missed? [Finale 2014] I have had similar problems on my laptop with a Samsung ML 3310 ND laser printer and my wife has had them on her static PC. I haven't solved them, but they look to me like printer driver problems, since they occur with several application programs on two different computers, and have arisen only since we moved from Windows XP to 8.1.

[Finale] Part prints at 1/16 size of page
[Finale 2009] I have just created a score and extracted the parts; they all print okay except one part, which only fills about 1/16 of the page (i.e. A8 instead of A4). I have tried printing directly from Finale and printing to PDF; I have checked page sizes for the part within Finale page layout tool, the settings for the printer and PDF generator and they all specify A4. What have I missed?
