So, I have a publisher interested in publishing a work of mine, but says they need the file in Sibelius format (groan!)
I have a friend who uses Sib, but he is extremely busy and I hate to impose upon him. it’s a fairly large file, 33 pages for brass band,23 staves, 3000 frames. How much work is involved, approximately? It looks like I could purchase a lifetime license for the software for $200, would this be a good time for me to learn the program? (I am 66 years old with a few health problems in my past Including a spine injury which makes sitting at the computer for long hours much more difficult than it used to be - I am not certain of my longevity prognosis, and I would rather spend my remaining years trying to create something new then learning new software. Financially, this is not a mass market work, so paying a professional to convert this would probably not make sense for me, although I haven’t been published much and I would like to get it out there even if I lose a little. In the meantime, I am trying to look for other publishers. Any advice will be very much appreciated!
