I don't think this is the right one. But it does not matter, because...
Despite the efforts of some enthusiasts like you and I, still many works are available only as *printed* scores. Hope you will be able to purchase a copy.
... i have already ordered the printed score. If the adaption for organ (made by Patrik Vretblad) is old enough (that is, 70 years) I might create a PMX version myself.
I have seen Vretblad's editions of the Roman trio sonatas, and I'm afraid that his style of realizing the figured bass, for example, is very far from what todays musicians would do, at least if they have any knowledge about baroque music interpretation. Vretblad certainly did a great job to reintroduce this music at his time, but I wouldn't recommend you to copy his editions in any modern edition of the music. It's much better to just include the figured bass without any realization if you don't have the competence yourself to make one.
This is a general problem for free scores published in the Werner Icking archive and other public domain archives, since we usually have to base the editions on editions made around 1900. Unfortunately, the editors at that time made lots of additions and changes in the scores that the current publishing houses would never send to print. This applies not only for baroque music but also for Mozart, Beethoven and Brahms, for example.
