Making worksheets

Posted by SAbd on 1/8/2025, 8:52 am

I have used Finale worksheets almost every day for my entire career. I always end up teaching music theory at whatever school I am at, so that's where I use it the most, but I use it for band as well: fingering worksheets, keys signatures, scales, etc. With the impending demise of Finale, does anyone have any suggestions for other programs to create worksheets? Does Sibelius have worksheets?
I use Flat for most of my score work, and I am able to use it with G Docs to create some worksheets, but I liked the built in worksheets that I could tweak in Finale.

I switched to Dorico years ago and I'm very happy with it. I've made lots of worksheets for band kids and theory classes.

Finale won't stop working if you already have it installed - you just can't get new copies. Just keep doing what you're doing.

Unless your OS updates and you can't run it anymore, like has happened with MacOS.

Yes, I plan on using it as long as I can. Just trying to think ahead and possibly learn a new software while I have the time to do so.
