Before you print it out, make sure have a sighted person to look over the
score.
When there are chords, lyrics, expression, technique marking, articulation,
and so on, a lot of them are going to be overlapped, and it'd be extremely hard
or even impposible for people to read. You might need to widen the spaces
between staves to fit those items.
I really wish Jaws can tell you which items are overlapping and stuff.
Layout and overlapping item are biggest problem for us to produce a good
looking or ledgible chart for people to sight read.
Jazzers and rockers are used to sloppy charts, but classical people are used
to very well-produced parts and scores!

I'd just put Div. on the technique marking.
Or you can jjust insert a text by going creat - text - other - small text I
think and write Div.
Make sure put those two lines on different voices. Otherwise it'd be hard
for people to read.
When you work with voices, don't follow the sibelius speaking tutorial. It
creates bunch of bar rest when there are nothing on the voice 2.
You want everybody to sing when there's only one voice. If there are notes
on first voice and bunch of bar rest on second voice, only half of them might
sing it. lol
Here's how you make different voices on one staff. Write both parts on two
seperat staves. Let's call it staff 1 and staff 2.
Staff 1 will have the main part, and the staff 2 will have only div
materials.
Select staff 2 and assign it as voice 2 by pressing alt2.
Then select only the voice 2 on staff 2 by pressing ctrl+shift+alt 2.
Copy and paste the staf 2 onto Staf 1.
Then, staff 1 will show voice 1 from the beginning to the end, and it'll
show both voice 1 and voice 2 when only there are notes for voice 2.
Now you can delete the staff 2.

Ok. I've now got my notes where i want them. the sopranos split at the end
of the piece the way I want them. In Braille music I saw "divisi" or how ever
you spell it. Do I do the same thing for the sighted choir and if so how do I
put the text in there? I know I'm missing something or I'm drawing a blank or
it is probably so easy I'll kick myself later tonight. I'm trying to get this
piece done before April or so so I can daybeau it at the church.
