Here's a link to that file: https://imslp.org/wiki/Special:IMSLPImageHandler/16594%2Fnhafj There are links to that file under D.146, D.779 and D.783. There is now no link under D.145, which is just as it should be. However, the file itself still contains two errors in identifying the pieces shown: D...

A contribution by bh2000, #16594, includes a number of early versions which he identified as being from Schubert's D145, D146, D779 and D783. However, some of them are wrongly identified in the file. For instance, the one indicated as D145 No.12 is actually D779 No.12. Also it is not a Ländler but a...

User Fdamiani has done a marvellous job uploading the Peters Schubert Lieder. However, a few Lieder are missing. Peters published an extra volume "Ausgewaelte Lieder". That volume includes six songs under the heading "Bisher in der Edition Peters nicht enthalten". They are D6, D3...

Schubert's D697 has six Ecossaises, but only five were included in the Breitkopf & Haertel edition (the originally missing one, the fifth of the six, was later published by Baerenreiter, but that one is under copyright). The IMSLP page header indicates just five. I think it should indicate six, ...

Thanks for all the suggestions. Re the incidental suggestion about deleting the introductory note by Marguerite to overcome copyright, it's an interesting idea, but I'm not sure it's correct. The title page says "Transcribed and with notes by [her]". Some of those notes appear within the s...

Good -- that is similar to what I see in the pdf (about 12 pixels per note-head grayscale). I scanned at 600 dpi B/W and still have the jpeg files, which also look the way you described them (about 40 pixels per note-head B/W). Then the jpegs have to be converted to pdf for IMSLP. I used Adobe Acrob...

No, all mine were scanned at 600 dpi Black and White (with paint.net). (I had misunderstood your first message, because it was never grayscale.) I'm not sure whether you're looking at the right one: it is #429513 (edited by Vladimir de Pachmann, size 11.62 MB, scanned and uploaded by Nigel Nettheim)...

Thanks very much! That does seem to be the explanation. However, with monochrome, the quality is inadequate in this case, so the larger file size with grayscale seems warranted. But I will certainly experiment further with monochrome scanning... Nigel.

I've submitted a number of items edited by Vladimir de Pachmann, including for instance the Chopin Polonaise op.53. My files are much larger, by a factor of about 5, than those of other submitters of the same piece and using the same 600 dpi. I've tried many methods to reduce my file size, without s...
