Export to PDF
I have 8 parts in my score. Three of them are vocal parts (soloists, women and men). How do I export all three parts together in one file? Not one after the other, but on the same sheet of paper, one below the other.

Export them to .PDF (three separate files). Then use Adobe Acrobat or another .PDF editor to combine the three files into one.

Unfortunately, that doesn't solve my problem. It's not a matter of adding pages. I need all three voices on the same page, one part below the other. Is this possible?

What I just suggested is the only possibility. Use a .PDF editor to combine the three files ... all on the same page. MuseScore can only export the parts separately.

Open the Instruments palette (or Layout, if you have 5.4) and close the "Eye" for the parts you don't want. I.E. leave the vocal parts. Now export the score only as PDF.

Completely gobsmacked! That possibility never occurred to me, but it's obvious as soon as the possibility is pointed out.

You can create a custom part containg all three staves.

Thank you, Andreas! This is exactly what I need!

Hm. As far as I can see, this new custom part does not take over manually added corrections to the notes and text, such as additional horizontal offset from the automatically determined position. Have I overlooked something somewhere?

I think you are not overlooking anything. Formatting is done separately for each part. The formatting of one part does not affect the formatting of another part, even if they contain the same instrument(s).
