Saving new templates  

Open any document and make the desired settings. For example, if you plan to compose a multimovement flute piece, you might add some flute staves and create a flute quintet template. When you’ve set up your score, from the File menu, choose Save. Then, from the Files of Type drop-down list, choose Finale Template File *.FTM. Name the file whatever you wish and save it to a memorable location, such as the Finale 2011/Music Files/Templates folder (which opens automatically when you choose File > New > Document From Template). Note that you can save the .FTM file anywhere, and anytime you open it, Finale will create a duplicate copy and leave the original template alone.
