Hi Lelia,

Thanks, that's very kind of you. I don't have or know much about Sibelius but when I make a PDF file of music from Coda Finale, I export it as TIF, then open the TIF file in OpenOffice (which is free) and from there save as PDF. It's very easy. Even for me...

Tried the whole procedure with download etc. again today. Didn't work. Funny.....

Ciao,
David
