I have Finale 2012 on a PC with windows 10. I tried to export a copy of my work in PDF format. A window pop up saying that there are several fonts not available and they will be replaced by a system fonts. The result is something that resembles the score but completely useless.

How can I fix this problem?

Thank you

Most folks who export PDF from Finale have been disappointed in the (flawed) PDF export included with the program and instead use a third-party PDF "printer" that installs as an option of your operating system's Print routine. One simply tells Finale to print and chooses the PDF printer as an alternative to your laser or inkjet. Some of these third-party PDF printers are free.

Yes, though sometimes this does not work - I keep getting an 'access is denied' message which I don't understand.

But when printing, I cannot create my own paper size such as 10X13

Exporting in DPF file in older Finale version was not a problem

You need to set up the page size in both Finale and the PDF printer. Use a third party PDS printer program.

It is bad manners to hijack someone else's thread, BTW. Start your own.
