XML import from Finale doesn't know what to do with lyrics HELP!
All Verses and Chorus import with the text all on same line and there is no way to separate them.
I was hoping MuseScore could be my replacement for Finale,
but accurate Xml import is needed for all those years of Finale files.
I would hate to be forced to the competition Steinbergs Dorico
as it is a complete pain in the A** to learn and MuseScore is so much more intuitive
to use but I need to be able to print my old files and Dorico does a better XML import.
There are thousands of Finale customers out there that are evaluating MuseScore and Dorico right now, so fix this and you've got me.

Please attach the XML file, finding the cause of this issue with only the PDF files is next to impossible.

I've attached the Finale XML export file.
Hope that can lead to a solution. thanks for the help.
Looks more like fingerings rather than lyrics and in Finale with R and L superimposed on one another

Yes the file names are backwards.
The sticking in finale was entered as Lyrics.
So I suppose the import of lyrics from XML must have a problem.
Actually looks like you have the filenames the wrong way round, "Original Finale File.pdf" stems from MuseScore 4.4.2, and is MuseScore that imports those fingerings/lyrics superimposed.
