That said, SMB can convert .mxl files directly to braille, so there's no need to worry. This is unlike some of the older programs that could only do .xml and .musicxml, in other words, uncompressed MusicXML. MuseScore can export MusicXML in all its formats.<o:p></o:p></p><div><p class=MsoNormal>1. Go to file menu with Control F.<o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal>2.
