I have Sibelius 6 and created a score with 4 instruments.
When I print parts (to PDF), three of the parts are
printing twice, for example: _____ Bass and _____ Bass 2.
It's the Bass, Drum and Voice parts.
There's only one of each on the score.
The other part (saxophone) only prints once (as should be.)

I tried to attach the Sibelius file and PDF, but it and other items on my desktop are grayed out when I attempt to attach.

Thanks...

A pdf wouldn't help, you'd have to attach a score and this old, unofficial forum won't let you do that.

You could always try the official Sibelius chat pages. https://www.sibelius.com/cgi-bin/helpce ... ?groupid=3

I notice you're on a Mac. If by chance you've upgraded to Big Sur, then Sibelius 6 won't work properly with it.

You'd then have 3 options:
1) downgrade to an older Mac OS
2) upgrade to the latest version of Sibelius Ultimate, not just Sibelius
3) buy a cheap Windows computer for running Sibelius (probably less expensive than upgrading)
