To Oliver and Mark and others, discussing how to make Finale
notated scores available in a flexible format on the Web.

Yesterday I got the upgrade info for Finale 3.7. Two of the
improvements listed:
1) Ability to export scores as bitmap (BMP), TIFF, or EPS
(encapsulated postscript) files...this should make graphics files
easy to create in a web-readable format.
2) Some (to me) nebulous file format improvements in sharing
between Mac and Windows.

Windows version 3.7 is available now; Mac 3.7 apparently available
"soon".

If this is true, it should make things easier.

Martin
