When only one particular articulation needs fixing, another way to do this
is simply to add the *same* articulation (EX: staccatto) to the existing
pallette in a new location. Use Duplicate, then use Edit to set the
respective values and behaviors of the new position however you want. Then

In Page Setup, set your page size to tabloid landscape orientation. (I.e., the actual
physical page size.)
In Finale, set your pages to letter size. (I.e., the logical page size).
In the Print diaolg, go to the Finale options and select 2-Up and check Ingore Printer

You could theoretically open up the PD
There is no easy way to do what you want.
Printing and scanning (with all its headaches) is the only way, other
than re-entering from scratch.

It seems to me you have two issues w/ part extraction. One is the same as with the
score, i.e., you want to maintain the mvmt 4 pages separately. I would use PDFs for
this, just as I would with the score. Just
But even if you wanted completely different page numbers and/or

Rather than keep multiple Finale files, would it not be easier just to keep multuple

movement? The only issue I can see is page numbering. Some publishers get around this
by showing the page numbers of the alternate
I am just at the point of completing the editing of a symphony whose

therefore, to separate out the last movement as a separate

This is an addendum to the advice already proferred by Chris and David. First of all,
I cannot tell any difference between using clip files and copy/insert on late-model
versions of Finale, so I wouldn't bother with clip files.
Copy/insert (between docs) mostly works fine, but there are 2 gotcha
