Graphics

With the Graphics tool you can place the following graphic formats into any Finale document:

• EPS
• TIFF
• JPEG
• PNG
• BMP
• GIF
• WMF

The following graphics formats can be exported from Finale:

• EPS
• TIFF
• JPEG
• PNG

Graphics placed in Scroll View and Page View are assigned differently. Finale always assigns a graphic to a measure if you are in Scroll View when the graphic is placed. To place a page-assigned graphic, you must be in Page View. Both page- and measure-assigned graphics can be edited and repositioned in Page View. However, page-assigned graphics do not appear in Scroll View.

For information regarding the relationship between graphics in the score and linked parts, see Page-attached graphics and in linked parts and Measure-attached graphics in linked parts.

When exporting graphics, Finale exports entire pages of music, or a selected region of music. To export a selected area of a page, you must be in Page View.
