 CapToMusic seems to give excellent results with some files.

Thanks for the feedback. If you can e-mail me examples of the files
that create problems off-list, I can take a look at them and forward
them on to Bernd.

 By the way, what does the full Dolet plug-in for Finale do 
 that the standard version doesn't do?

The quick answer:

 - Batch import and export
 - MusicXML 1.1 export
 - Better import from Sibelius
 - Works with more versions of Finale
 - More frequent updates and bug fixes

For the full answer:

The MusicXML version in Finale 2007 corresponds to Dolet for Finale
version 3.2.

Hi Dennis,

Martin gave you the two best options for going from capella to Finale.
I would try CapToMusic first. It exports MusicXML 1.1 files while
capella Media Producer exports MusicXML 1.0 files. So the translations
tend to be more accurate using CapToMusic. Another link for it is:

In general, a good source for finding out if there's a good way to
transfer music from another program to Finale is to look at our
MusicXML software page:

If the other program can write a MusicXML file, Finale should be able
to read it.
