I tried to fix it.  See if it's all right now.

I can imagine...  But I would say that a very `minor issue'... ;-)

Thanks!

I guess I'm losing neurons too :+). You're right. I was
misrembering my experience of trying to use SharpEye to
produce midis *before* XML2PMX was available.

Hi!

I'm attaching a pdf file created by MusiXTeX.  It's ancient beatiful neapolitan
song, but that's only the piano accompaniment for singing voice (I must add it
in future).

Cheers,

Rodolfo

Hi Bodo,

your hint to "audiveris" is interesting. I tried to use audiveris a few 
years ago.

And I was very much disappointed, because I was not even able to install it.
And that was due to an OCR package of google which was stored in the 
wrong place.

If it has changed, the better.

Using SharpEye I never had a problem with the generated XML-code.
The SharpEye Editor is really powerful and systematically controls the 
duration of Bars.


Sure my XML2PMX does have its limits, for example it cannot (yet) treat 
stave-crossing beams.


So if it works  (99 % of the cases ;-) ), it is not a big effort for me. 
When it means new features, then it may take a bit longer.


Regards, Dieter

Hello Rodolfo,

if it's a reasonable amount of work, someone from this list may do the 
scanning/conversion for you.
(Dieter may also use your PDF to test/improve the MusicXML-to-PMX 
converter.)


If you want to do the scan process yourself you can try Audiveris
https://github.com/audiveris
I only tried the earlier generation about a year ago, which was not 
able to convert all files.


There is also an online conversion service that converts a PDF to a 
MuseScore file. This service uses Audiveris, don't know if they use 
the current generation. MuseScore is free and can export MusicXML.

The import service requires free registration on the MuseScore site.
https://musescore.com/import


Kind regards,
Bodo

Re: [Tex-music] Produce midi file from MusiXTeX code

[Dieter]

I want to clarify clarify,   how to solve Rodolfo's problem with 
Sharpeye and XML2PMX.


1. MusiXTeX produces note sheets in a PDF-file
2. "FreePDF to TIFF converter"  Creates TIF-file(s) from PDF-file
3. SharpEye reads TIF, then  we can manually correct any scanning error 
with the SharpEye Notes Editor

4. SharpEye creates MusixXML
5. XML2PMX creates PMX-Input
6. PMX creates midi

But beware, that this midi file is not made for a beauty contest, but 
only for auditively controling the note pitch.

For example the effect of ties is not taken into account.

Rodolfo is still invited to send me his PDF-file, so that I can try.

Regards, Dieter
