To export full pages of music as graphics (Page View)

1. Choose View > Page View.
2. Click the Graphics Tool  . The Graphics menu appears.
3. Choose Export Pages from the Graphics menu. The Export Pages dialog box appears.
4. Choose a graphics format from the Type pop-up menu to tell Finale whether to create an EPS, JPEG, PICT, PNG, TIFF, or SVG file. If you select EPS or TIFF, the PostScript Options or TIFF Resolution settings will be available, respectively. For details about these settings, see Export Selection and Export Pages dialog boxes.
5. Use the Pages setting to export all pages or a range of pages of your score to graphics files. Select All to export every page of your score to a graphics file. Select From to export a range of pages, then enter the page numbers in the two text boxes.
6. To have Finale name each new graphics file automatically, select Generate Names From and enter the file’s title in the text box, followed by a number sign (#). Optional: Click Save In to specify the folder that you want Finale to save the graphics files into. Finale uses the title and replaces the number sign by a sequential number to create a unique title for each file. Select Prompt For Each Name if you want Finale to ask you for a title each time a file is created.

Note. Unless you specifically enter a file extension as part of the file name, Finale will automatically save graphics files using their standard extensions: TIF for TIFF files and EPS for Encapsulated PostScript files (or the extensions specified in the [EXTENSIONS] section of the Finale.ini file).

7. Click OK (or press RETURN). The standard Save As dialog box appears. Click OK to save the graphics files.
