Good morning!

I am an amateur flutist and clarinetist. I have been playing with Notepad for a several days now. I am extremely impressed with the product. However, there are a few features that I need and that appear to be missing from the Notepad edition. Before I buy PrintMusic, I would like to confirm that the program includes those features. I have downloaded the PDF file explaining the differences between the products in the Finale family but these features were not listed:

Is it possible to change the time and/or key signature of a piece part way through?

Is it possible to display multi-measure rests (with the appropriate symbol and number of measures above it)?

Is it possible to display measure numbers automatically?

Is it possible to alter the spacing between staves or otherwise to avoid having a second page with one staff and one or two measures only?

I hope you get an answer, but most of the people on this forum are Finale users, and may not be familiar with PrintMusic's capabilities.

You may be better off calling Coda sales on Monday at 1-800-843-2066, or e-mailing them at finalesales@makemusic.com

In response to your "Can I do these things", the answer is YES. I just tried all of them and they work just as you'll want them to.

Yes it can, sadly that is pretty much all it can do.
