Project properties
I have created an arrangement and did not fill out the Project Properties prior to doing the arrangement. I have now filled out the Project properties (Sub title, composer, arranger, etc) and am wondering how to get the information printed on the arrangement? I'm sure there must be an easy way to do this.

Once your score has been created, any metadata changed in Project Properties is disconnected from the text displayed in Title, Subtitle, Lyricist, Composer.
So you then have to change the details in two places: in Project Properties and in the displayed field.
Strangely the Copyright field in Project Properties does respond properly to a change, so the new value appears in Head or Footer if you use the special characters $C or $c when filling out Format > Style... > Header & footer

Thank you for your input, it sounds like a program enhancement may be in order. Seems to me that anything changed in the metadata field should be displayed on the score.

I searched for a $ option for those fields with no success, I know it works for the copyright field. Thanks again for your response.

Thanks for your input, I have been able to get the Meta information to print on the first page of the arrangement, but it prints in the upper right corner of the arrangement (Which is where I asked it to print). Is there any way to move the printed data (Composer/Arranger) to a more appropriate location?

These meta tags are only available in headers and footers, unfortunately.
