Hi,
I'm using both programs depending on what my collaborators have.

Is there a way to Resize a page in sibelius like we have in Finale (resize tool).
(since do it in the printer setup is not an option for me).

Kind Regards,

Jorge

You should probably ask this question over on the Sib forum:

... better chance for a good answer!

Believe me I did!
But until now the best tips, comes from me reading the manual, chapter to chapter.

Besides, I don't mind reading the manual, I even encourage it, but today I'm on a dead line...

The reason I've also post it here, was because we Finale users know what I'm talking about,
and the power of the resize tool! : ) It's really awesome! And don't mess a thing.
They way of thought is choose another predefined page size, say; Letter to Quatro. : ) got it?
Anyway, thanks for the interest.
Cheers,
Jorge

Go to the "Document Setup..." (cmd+D, or Layout>Document Setup).

Find the setting for "staff size" in the Document Setup dialogue box, and adjust this number to effectively reduce the page percentage. I think this is a global command, so you can't do a page by page adjustment of the sizes.

Hope that helps.

James
