Bobsax Well-known member Sep 2, 2018 #1 Finale users will know it often takes awhile to layout a leadsheet. I just tried importing an iReal mxl file into Finale and got a pretty good result. It laid out the page nicely but the chord fonts are too small and light. Attachments Screen Shot 2018-09-02 at 3.31.55 PM.jpg 42.1 KB · Views: 289

I found this URL: https://usermanuals.finalemusic.com/Finale2012Win/Content/Finale/Chord_symbols20.htm and although it refers to a old version of Finale (for Windows), they are there in my Finale 25 (Mac) so it should work.
