It's the norm in jazz these days, and I see it more in classical orchestras as well. Even I use it.

Four times I've downloaded it (MUSESCORE 2) and tried to run the program to set up only for it to fail Error 2608 (I recall) which was very obstinate to remove. Twice I used a third party (Sourceforge) and even a mirror but to no avail. I wonder if it's a temporary glitch and thought I'd try again tomorrow.... I downloaded an old version from CNET (MUSESCORE 1.13) and it ran OK but it doesn't accept pdf files which, I believe, the latest version does.

It seems there is no easy answer but that MUSESCORE2 might be suitable - but only if the original was created digitally in the first place - also other issues. Some of the scores I'm looking at currently are the Biber mass settings in the old (but still quite good) editions in the series [1]Denkmà ¤ler der Tonkunst in Ãsterreich I guess from what is being said that these wouldn't work with MUSESCORE - but I'll certainly give it a whirl!

Please, don't use Gimp. It's a marvelous program, but not meant for that kind of job (and your "IT-person" should know ...) Gimp works on raster images only and will convert a pdf to a (set of) raster images. At that point you work with pixel data which will most likely look rather disapointing when printed at a different resolution. > Incidentally, Finale does have a free 'Notepad' version but this seems > very limited and unable (I think) to do the sort of cut and paste I had > in mind. Before you investigate further in Finale (a piece of crap IMHO) you might want to have a look at MuseScore ([13][23][27]https://musescore.org) - that'll probably give you more than you ever need, and the latest versions have pretty good support for lute tab. > Previously I've simply run off a photocopy and by using some > large paper shears and glue made a physical paste up - but the 160+; > pages of the mass rather put me off this traditional technique - hence > the search for a digital alternative. The digital version of that would be to import our pdf into a vector drawing program (Adobe Illustrator, Inkscape etc.) but the quality of that import depends on the program that generated the pdf. Unfortunately, the only convincing path to solve your problem is to use the same program as the original typesetter (if you can get the original digital version, NO the pdf). Otherwise, a good pair of scissors IS an astonishingly effective tool :-) Cheers, Ralf Mattes > regards > Martyn > To get on or off this list see list information at [14][24][28]http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/~wbc/lute-admin/ index.html -- References 1.
