Re: [Finale] Parts have different page size than score (Mac)
One would think so, but I've never found that option to have any effect on this issue. Indeed, I've never seen that it does anything. But I leave it checked anyway.

Re: [Finale] Parts have different page size than score (Mac)
In response to the comment 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. -- I routinely do this for booklet printing. I set the page layout to 8.5 x 11 portrait, and the printer to 11x17 landscape and print 2-up. I got the procedure from Finale user manual ( http://www.finalemusic.com/UserManuals/Finale2011Win/Finale_Left.htm?booklet%20printing#CSHID=1|StartTopic=Content%2FFinale%2FSearch.htm|SkinName=main ) --- James James Cooper Composer, classical guitarist, songwriter www.ModeZ.com On Sat, Jan 21, 2012 at 1:01 PM, Chuck Israels cisra...@comcast.net wrote: 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.

Re: [Finale] Parts have different page size than score (Mac)
Thanks, James. I don't think the people at MM are thoughtless, so my first assumption is that there are reasons for decisions to implement things in the ways that they do them. This is an example of why there are two places to control printing parameters. Still, it seems that this is not the usual circumstance, so perhaps it would be more efficient for most users if the default didn't require entering the information in two places. It's a small thing for me, but it might be good to have it automated that way by default and changeable in situations like yours.

Besides the reason Jim Cooper mentioned, of printing booklets, there's another reason. If one is wishes to print a conductor's score sized larger than the largest size of paper one's printer can handle, the score must be tiled, each page of the score divided between two or more sheets of paper which are assembled by analog methods after printing. This is not as much of an issue today as it was years ago, when 11 x 17 printers were, if not unknown, tremendously expensive. ns ___ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
Re: [Finale] Parts have different page size than score (Mac)
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.
