Re: [Finale] Printing two letter size PDFs to ledger size paper- possible?

Yes, I print many in Finale directly, but for various reasons I have to do some from PDFs. Actually the reason I have to print PDFs sometimes lately is another bug that has bit me many times in all recent windows versions - inserted graphics that go haywire. Sometimes graphics disappear only to ap

Re: [Finale] Printing two letter size PDFs to ledger size paper- possible?

I cannot figure a way in Adobe Reader. It looks correct on the screen, but prints wrong to my Ricoh ap2610. Thanks Raymond Horton Composer, Arranger Minister of Music, Edwardsville (IN) United Methodist Church former Bass trombonist, Louisville Orchestra On Jun 5, 2016 9:52 PM, "Robert Patterson"

Re: [Finale] Printing two letter size PDFs to ledger size paper- possible?

You can do it directly from Finale by choosing 11x17 as the page size and 2-up printing, ignore printer margins. Sent from my iPhone > On Jun 5, 2016, at 6:52 PM, Robert Patterson > wrote: > > If you mean booklet printing, I use Cheap Imposter on Mac. Adobe Reader can > also do it. > > On S

If you mean booklet printing, I use Cheap Imposter on Mac. Adobe Reader can also do it. On Sun, Jun 5, 2016 at 8:48 PM, Raymond Horton wrote: > I've tried to do this in several different software apps , unsuccessfully. > Any suggestions? Thanks > > Raymond Horton > Composer, Arranger > Minister

Best advice is to contact MakeMusic through the website. If you do it tonight you may get a message back tomorrow. On Sun, Jun 5, 2016 at 6:03 PM, Raymond Horton wrote: > Finale Windows 2014 .5 locks up when I try to load it. I reinstalled and > rebooted, no difference. Thanks for any advice >

Finale Windows 2014 .5 locks up when I try to load it. I reinstalled and rebooted, no difference. Thanks for any advice Raymond Horton Composer, Arranger Minister of Music, Edwardsville (IN) United Methodist Church former Bass trombonist, Louisville Orchestra __

Re: [Finale] Why Is It So Hard to Add Instruments to an Orchestration?

Amen. Been doing that also. There is an odd problem with these files and MakeMusic says they are working on a fix -- same with the issues in the unstoppable playback -- which is tolerable on a lead sheet but impossible when writing a concerto movement. Thanks. Jon On Sun, Jun 5, 2016 at 1:29

Re: [Finale] Why Is It So Hard to Add Instruments to an Orchestration?

And when your Preferences are set up as you like them, make duplicates of this Preference file (Finale 2014.5 Preferences - copy 1 - etc.), so that when one file becomes corrupted, you can replace it with a copy (simply remove the “copy x” from the name) without having to rebuild your entire pr

JD: Check out my reply to Ray. There is a fix. If you are running on a Mac -- this from MakeMusic Tech support -- it works, but you are likely to have to keep doing it -- if you are running on a Windows platform you will need to check in with MakeMusic Tech support: Hi Jonathan, Thank you for t

Re: [Finale] Why Is It So Hard to Add Instruments to an Orchestration?

Ray: Check in with MakeMusic tech support. They told me to delete the Finale 2014.5 preferences file (this is on a Mac -- but there should be an equivalent fix for Windows) Jon On Sun, Jun 5, 2016 at 1:13 PM, Raymond Horton wrote: > I have had two experiences with trying to do very large scores

Re: [Finale] Why Is It So Hard to Add Instruments to an Orchestration?

Not meaning to hijack this thread, but I agree with Jon about 2014.5 being an absolute slug when editing a large orchestral file. I am working on an opera that ballooned to 7.3MB from 3MB when I converted it from Finale 2012 to 2014. Everything takes an eternity when editing: changing tools, c

Re: [Finale] Why Is It So Hard to Add Instruments to an Orchestration?

I have had two experiences with trying to do very large scores in 2014.5 and I always have had extremely slow response. I always export back to 2012 and work in 2012 as much as possible. Saving files , changing time signatures, and other routine tasks always take an extremely long time in 2014. Thi

[Finale] Why Is It So Hard to Add Instruments to an Orchestration?

Really appreciate the feedback. What I'm hearing is, suck it up until I'm finished with this orchestration, then upgrade to Finale 2014.5, especially because I heard 2012 has problems with .asv files (which would really scare me, because I average a few crashes a month). Anyone have an experience w

Re: [Finale] Why Is It So Hard to Add Instruments to an Orchestration?

I am using 2014.5 -- sorry to have called it b Do you have an issue stopping the playback? That is an issue for me and MakeMusic confirmed it was an problem they are trying to fix. You will also find that notation is extremely slow in large scored (full orchestral). On Sun, Jun 5, 2016 at 1:49 AM
