A song is simply a collection of one or more score images that will be saved or published as one unit. Scorecerer supports drag and drop functionality, or you can import scanned scores using the Import feature.

 

Scorecerer recognizes various image file formats, including JPEG files, PNG files, PDF files, ZIP files containing multiple music score images, and unencrypted FH files that were created by MusicPad Manager from Freehand Systems.

 

Note: Scorecerer currently does not have any built-in support for scanners.

Click and drag a score from the folder in which you've saved it, and drop it into the bottom half of the Scorecerer main window. You can also drag and drop files directly from your scanner application, if your scanner supports drag and drop.
