RE: [Finale] OT: Ricoh 2610 help needed

Hi Darcy, I suspect that there may be other issues with your duplexer like the plastic tab. I have been successful printing double sided pages without the horrible racket you mention but I have had the wrinkling I mentioned with 20 lb. paper and 24 lb paper. I suspect that I need to use 32 lb pa

24 lb. paper should work most of the time. Even 20 lb. paper shouldn't jam EVERY time. I don't use a Ricoh 2610, but I've done a lot of double-sided copying on a Canon copier (which is probably less sensitive to jamming than a duplexer). I used to get about a 25% krinkle rate using 20 lb. paper;

Hi Burt, Okay, I solved one problem -- in checking the packaging, I noticed that one of the plastic tabs at the top of the unit had broken off. So I applied some Krazy Glue, let it dry, tried again and -- hey, the printer recognized the duplex unit now! Great! Except that now, when I try to

Hi Bob, Shift-double-click the Measure tool to bring up the measure number dialog box. Add a new measure number region, from measure 1 to measure 16. Then change the "first number in region" to "17" and adjust the positioning so that the second set of numbers do not collide with the first se

Hi Johannes, I have created .PS files using the drivers for both my real printer (HP 2200D) and a virtual printer (for large-format PDFs). I created both of these printers from within Classic. I used the latest Adobe PS drivers -- Apple's LaserWriter 8 drivers didn't work for me. I selected

Johannes, I don't know about Fin2003, but with Fin2002 I have had no trouble generating working .PS files from Classic. In fact, my regular PDF-making procedure is to print to .PS file in Fin2002, then open the .PS file in Preview, which automatically converts the file to PDF. The quality of

It's a fine question to ask, just a difficult one to answer. Are you doing this as a side-line to a regular, full-income job? Are you trying to earn your living entirely from engraving? How much do you need to bring in for an hour's work to support yourself? You can charge by any method that y

2004-02-13 Thread David H. Bailey
For half measures I would suggest sticking to 3 dotted-quarter-rests, since that will show the beats clearly. For whole measures I agree the double-whole-rest would work fine. David H. Bailey Johannes Gebauer wrote: This is one I am really unsure about: 18/8 meter (with 6 equal beats, ie 6
