Instrument names in PDF Export

• Sep 26, 2024 - 10:04

I have written music for 3 trumpets.
In the Musecore editor their names are:
Trumpet 1
Trumpet 2
Trumpet 3
In the exported PDF files their corresponding names are:
Trumpet
Trumpet (1)
Trumpet (2)
Where can the exported instrument names be edited?

Maybe if you adjust the instrument name under Staff/Part Properties?
At least that was the case in the 3.x versions ...

The Instrument only has the options from a list, yes. But the Part Name, Long Instrument Name, and Short Instrument Name are text fields. In particular, the Long Instrument Name is the name that appears on the first system of a section and the Short Instrument Name is the name that appears on every other system.

Thank You very much.
This may be a completely different problem.
I now have 2 scores. One is as it should be. The other is faulty, as described above.
I created the faulty score first, did a lot of editing and tried printing.
I created the second one much faster with more knowledge of how MuseScore works.
