Hi,
Just gort a piece done for Piano and flute. Exported it as a pdf in one file. (Sib gives correct info- 6 pages, no' of staves etc) however after exporting the piano part is duplicated again at the end. Driving me mad- tried re- naming the file- looked at the wildcard % suggestions, tried to export in another way- I just keep getting the piano part doubled- please help

Go into Parts and delete the extra piano part then re-export.

Have Sibelius not Ultimate Mike- can't find it? Parts is in "invisibles" but does nothing when checked- no option to cancel piano part-or should I be looking elsewhere?

If it's the parts in the export window you meant- there is only one piano and one flute there-a real mystery?

When you create a score Sib automajically creates dynamic parts for each and every instrument. They are listed under the little plus sign at the top right hand corner. If you click on the plus you will see Full Score followed by Flute then Piano.

If you don't want the piano part to export, choose score and then "a selection of parts" and then use a pdf editor to join the pdfs together. I suspect you can't mess with parts in Sibelius (middle tier). I can't see any mention of it on the Avid website, but it seems likely.
