Myriad PDFtoMusic Pro v1.4.2c

Myriad PDFtoMusic Pro v1.4.2c WiN/OSX-RBS Team RBS | July 20 2014 | WiN 10.4 MB | OSX 14.5 MBThe scores you created with your old score editor are no more compatible with the new one?

You own scores in PDF format, and you'd want to modify them with your favorite score editor?

Until now, the only solution was either to input your score again completely, or to print them and to use an optical recognition software to convert them, with more or less success, into editable documents.

This way of thinking now belongs to the past. From a document in PDF format (that you can generate from any software, even from discontinued products), PDFtoMusic Pro rebuilds the original score, and exports it for instance into MusicXML format, useable in most of the professional score editors.

Because it only processes PDF files that have been exported from a score editor software, PDFtoMusic Pro offers a unique reliability and outstanding results.
Therefore, scanned sheet music cannot be managed by PDFtoMusic Pro.

I hope you will find useful as well
