<DIV>Hello,</DIV>
<DIV>I don’t think that’s totally the problem. Here are the scans I have of
this particularly badly scanned song.</DIV>
<DIV>Page 209 was scanned by my friend and has the white notes. We scanned it
4 or 5 times and kept getting the same thing. She finally just pressed the
copy button and without her changing the position of the book, it copied just
fine.</DIV>
<DIV>I have quite a few anthologies and I would gladly pay to have them all
scanned into the computer perfectly and have each song its own file, but I
don’t know, A, how I’d be able to keep pages after the binding was taken away,
or B, if there is someone with an industrial scanner who reads music and could
do this.</DIV>
<DIV>I’m just super nervous scanning in things I’m not going to be able to
read and using them for a professional gig.</DIV>
<DIV>Thanks,</DIV>

it be that your problems with obtaining a good scan are related to the book
not being flat on the scanner? Depending on your circumstances, sometimes a
blind person needs to give up the integrity of an actual book, and carefully
separate the pages. If you have access to a good-quality paper cutter, that
usually works well, depending on the thickness of the book you are willing to
dismantle.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>

can make a binder full of print sheet music look
professional?<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P></DIV>

my accompanist’s binder looked like **** by one of my singer friends.

<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN
style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Calibri','sans-serif'; COLOR: black">I’ve been using my
sighted music illiterate parents to help me scan in each new piece of music I
am given out of the sheet music books I have. But when my friend looked at my
binder she was exclaiming how I had measures that were blurry, notes that were
white instead of black and in one case the measure on the bottom of the page
was cut off. <o:p></o:p></SPAN></P></DIV>
<DIV>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN
style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Calibri','sans-serif'; COLOR: black">She then proceeded
to take me to the store, we got a whole puncher, plain labeling tabs and a
sharpie, along with the 3 ring binder with the round rings on the spine and
not those slanted binders.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P></DIV>
<DIV>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN
style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Calibri','sans-serif'; COLOR: black">We went back to my
house and she helped me rescan pages that were messed up in my original TIF
files, but even then I was having a problem of the notes being white on some
staves instead of black. She just ended up copying the pages from my book
instead of using the computer. She then nicely labeled every song and made
sure they were all there and that every measure looked
perfect.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P></DIV>
<DIV>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN
style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Calibri','sans-serif'; COLOR: black">I was just asked to
email my music to a pianist so they can practice. I sent over my music, but I
got a response from the pianist that not all the pages were there. I mailed
her the tiffs along with the extra pages we scanned with my
friend.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P></DIV>
<DIV>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN
style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Calibri','sans-serif'; COLOR: black">I’m wondering how I
can make my print music look professional? Because as it stands I’ve been
looking like a dunce at the auditions I’ve gone to and the pianist questioned
my authenticity after receiving music with missing
pages.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P></DIV>
<DIV>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN
style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Calibri','sans-serif'; COLOR: black">I am not sure why
scanning in the music doesn’t seem to work, because that is the best way for
me to do things with my print music.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P></DIV>
<DIV>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN
style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Calibri','sans-serif'; COLOR: black">I’m worried when I
don’t have friends around who can help me with my music, what can I
do?<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P></DIV>
<DIV>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN
style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Calibri','sans-serif'; COLOR: black">I know if I got all
my music in a Lime file things would be good, because I’d be able to print the
lime file to a PDF and send that out, or print directly from the lime file.
But I don’t have any music literate people who I can train to scan into Lime.
I guess I can higher a pianist to take my music books and copy the pages that
my songs are on, then come back to my house and scan in those copied pages
into the computer, but again I am not sure how they will turn out, or even if
the music is right side up.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P></DIV>
