Hi,

don’t be discouraged to ask! When working with Finale and Frescobaldi,
there are several steps from your input to the print out, that need to
be separated to find the reason.

Frescobaldi just uses LilyPond internally, so whether you push the
engraving button in Frescobaldi or you run lilypond on the commandline
should not make any difference to the quality.

I assume that's what you do:

a) Frescobaldi/LP -> pdf (L)
b) Finale 2014 --(Adobe PDF printer)--> pdf (F)

Then you compare compare both pdfs at screen resolution and you print
both with the same Adobe PDF reader?

If you zoom into both pdfs, do you see any jagged lines or are they only
visible at a normal zoom level (100%)?
