Has anyone tried inputting Score files into Finale? Was there much editing to do? In the import menu, Score is listed. I was given very old Score files which of course did not open in Finale and had ".ham" as the suffix. Which would likely be best for that portion of the score already input? The score can be printed as is but needs to be input to create parts. The other two thirds of the score of course I was going to input into Finale. Or should I learn Score? I'm great at learning programs quickly but would think that Score wouldn't hold a candle to Finale and this is a complex classical full orchestra score. I can try and get a hold of the Score files, and/or scan those score pages already complete into Finale using SmartScore X Pro (although my scanner is letter size and the score pages are tabloid - so I'd have to either reduce them or scan in 2 parts), and/or I could purchase Score and learn the program. I thought that Score was discontinued long ago but found one site on the web where a new version of Score 5 is sold. I think importing the Score files would be fastest and the best choice if they come across pretty clean. There is both a tabloid sized full score and also a piano vocal that is letter sized. Thanks!
