Which is a poor argument. Look, I bought Finale 2006 in order to get new features and better performance. Both of which were advertised. Instead, I received an installer on the Mac side that wiped out a whole directory on my computer, serious performance lags, and huge bugs (ie: my printing iss

Just to be sure we're talking about the same thing: In the print dialog, in the "Presets" pull-down menu, you have only "Standard"? Hmm. Try maybe creating a new preset, then, and see if that helps? Cheers, - Darcy - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://secretsociety.typepad.com Brooklyn, NY On
