Save, Save As, and Revert
It is good practice to get in the habit of frequently saving the edits you make. You can
save your updates in the same le or as a new le in Notion format. You also have the
option of saving the score to another format (an export) other than Notion.
To keep in an existing le any new changes you made to the score or Mixer settings, either:
8 Use a keyboard shortcut: Windows: Ctrl + S; Mac:  + S, or
8 Go to the Menu Bar and select File > Save.
The First Time You Save
The rst time you save edits to a new score, you create a new le. You can store it in a folder of your choice
and give this new le any name you want as long as no other le in the folder has the same name.
1. Create a new score. Make a few edits, if you want.
2. Complete any of the following to open the Save dialog box:
> Press Windows: Ctrl + S Mac:  + S, or
> Select File > Save in the Menu bar.
3. Specify a folder location and a le name.
4. Click Save.
» This new le, with the extension of .Notion, is now ready for later retrieval.
Save as a Dierent Notion File
You have the option of saving edits to an existing score to a dierent le in a folder location of your choice.
1. To open a Save As dialog box, either:
> Press a keyboard shortcut: Windows: Shift + Ctrl + S; Mac: Shift +  + S, or
> Go to the Menu bar and select File > Save As.
2. In the Save As dialog box:
> Specify a location for the new le.
> Specify a name for the new le.
3. Click Save.
» This new le, with the extension of .Notion, is now ready for later retrieval.
Revert
You can have Notion disregard all the changes you’ve made since the last save. This time-saver is quicker
than multiple presses of the Undo key to return your score to a known level of completeness.
1. Go to the Menu Bar and select File > Revert.
» A message appears, asking you to verify the revert. This is important; you cannot undo a revert later.
2. To proceed, click Revert.
» Notion returns your score to the way it looked right after your most recent save.
