Finale Notepad is a total waste. It is a gimmick to entice you to buy one
of their other products. It will not allow changing keys or time signatures
in the middle of a piece. Even many simple pieces require this. When I ran
into these two limitations, I quit trying it. One would be better off to
buy the entry level PrintMusic! at approximately $69. I've tried both
Finale Notepad and Finale PrintMusic! I recommend Noteworthy Composer
instead.
