Have you restarted the computer? Refreshed the Preferences? Might the little green light mean numberpad is on?

In FinaleScript, there is a Batch Save as Graphic. That might do it for you, since one of the Graphic options is PDF. I've used that to create my PDFs for years, although never as a batch.

David T, I did use Nightingale back in the day. Interesting, but either due to its own limitations, or my incompetency, I eventually went the NotePad/PrintMusic/Finale way.

Install the demo, and find out.

Yes. Copy the notes into the measure(s) and then apply the staff style.

Just think what Finale could have been like, if they had been this responsive to the user base all along…

Slightly out of this thread, but Mike H, I just DLed Dorico. Going through their registration was only slightly less onerous than applying for a full-access pass to the Pentagon...

Print them. Egyptian papyrus is still around, thousands of years later. You can't say that about any other storage method, except clay tablets...

Ernie, Dorico states that (I paraphrase) ”they don’t use plugins, most functions that required plugins in Finale are handled natively in Dorico.”

I think they consider the blog post to be enough, and the grapevine will do the rest.
