The pdf export feature in WinFin2012c (the version I'm currently using) has a bug that generates extraneous characters, usually at the bottom of pages containing triplets. I reported this bug to Makemusic in Nov. 2013; it's a known bug in the 3rd party pdf export engine they use, and to the best

Hello Listers, My WinFin 2014 frustrations and annoyances continue, this time with a file imported from Midi. It's an orchestral score starting in 6/8 and continuing in a mixture of 6/8 and 9/8. When it's imported it mysteriously has a whole bar's rest at the beginning, followed by another
