I'll agree that Finale PrintMusic is considerably less than perfect, but it's the only Windows programme that has survived my move to Linux and it actually seems to run slightly better under Wine than it ever did on XP! It may be because I've used it since the days of MusicProse and I'm used to it, but it works for me. The documentation is worse than useless and I would say to anyone starting from scratch that it is emphatically not the programme to choose. If it's the only option, stick to manuscript paper and a good pen - but it isn't, so keep looking!
