Re: commenting on printing errors

It's probably best to use the Discussions feature and start a new discussion with your comments. Yes, but few visitors read the discussions. In my view, also add a Misc Notes line with a comment like has obvious misprints. See Discussion . But never, never correct the images yourself when you are t...

Re: How to eliminate non-uniform yellowing from a HathiTrust scan before converting to monochrome?

I'm working on a score from HathiTrust in preparation for uploading it to IMSLP.* It's not already monochrome or even grayscale, so I'm running it through ScanTailor to convert it to monochrome as well as set uniform page sizes. (I already removed the Google watermarks.) [...] I am having trouble w...

Re: Appeal for Help with Sibley Project

Is there a failure if you download a Sibley Scan on your computer and add it afterwards? Then let me know and I'll try.

Re: High resolution jpgs

One more little contribution to this: some users will print the score in A3 booklet mode. Then the odd-even status of the pages should be kept, because often there is an acceptable page turn possibity at the bottom of even pages. Depending on cases, an empty page just after the cover page should be ...

Re: High resolution jpgs

Then an important step is finding the right threshold to convert jpg images to monochrome. Select an image which has many 16th notes and natural sharp. Run this batch: @FOR /L %%A IN (10,5,95) DO magick p%1.jpg -compress group4 -threshold %%A%% p%%A%1.tif dir/on p??%1.tif entering the image number. ...

Re: Re-typeset parts for legibility

In the following attachment, A is what I presently have, with the slur crossing the stem. B is what I think the correct output should be, though there are options for exactly how you shorten the note. I slightly prefer the first one. C I think I've seen, but it looks horrible to my eye, and D, whil...

Re: Re-typeset parts for legibility

Now the page turns are OK. If I may still bother you: 1: The very short slur between an appogiatura and the next note should not collide with the stem of this note, if you can shorten it a little. 2: beams of 16th notes should not come closer than 1.5 inter-staffline to either note. Often there is o...

Re: Re-typeset parts for legibility

I'm not sure I fully understand courtesy accidentals, though when playing I often find them very useful. Is there a reason that there isn't one in the viola part 1st movement bar 104 on the E flat (lower note in the chord on the 3rd crotchet of the bar)? yeah, there is a natural bar 102. When it's ...
