Is it possible for you to re-enter the music in a modern music software package, such as Finale, or Sibelius? I know that Finale (and I believe Sibelius also) can produce postscript files of your music, and that might be much better to work with. Certainly it's a little more effort to re-enter the music, but I believe the results would be worth it. ________________________________________________________________________ _________________________ http://www.lulu.com/billsey -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
