Layout and printing

Although Finale automatically updates the score layout as you enter music, any measure, staff, system, or page can be resized, dragged or nudged as you see fit. Once you learn a few basic Selection Tool and Page Layout procedures, you’ll see how easy it is to ensure a beautiful and precise layout for any score.

To prepare for this lesson, open the document called “Tutorial 4,” which consists of a barbershop arrangement of “Auld Lang Syne.”
