Help making a xml file?
Hey guys, first I should probably say that I am completely blind when it comes to reading sheet music. I been researching and trying to find ways to convert a pdf file into a usable xml format that I can then convert to a midi in order to play it in synthesia. However, after a long and fruitless adventure, I decided to ask for help. I did try to mess around with MuseScore to see if I can do it on my own but I don't understand how sheet music works, let alone the program itself. If anyone can be kind enough to possibly convert this pdf for me, I would be forever grateful. I really want to learn it and synthesia is my go-to with my lack of ability to read music. Thanks for reading, and thanks even more if you decide to help out!

Okay, first of all, the right forum for this is Support and Bug Reports :-).
You might try the PDF converter — which tries to convert a PDF into MuseScore format.
If that doesn't work, the only solution would be to transcribe it into MuseScore. The MuseScore in Minutes videos are great (they can be viewed on the front page ).

Yea sorry about this being in the wrong forum. Kind of mad at myself for it. As for your suggestion, I tried that before coming here and it didn't work. I think it's because these are merely images of the sheet music in a pdf format, found out after looking into it a bit more. Honestly, I've given up on learning it awhile back. Spent too much time on a losing battle. I've only myself to blame for not being able to understand sheet music and the software. Although it was a bit late, thanks for at least trying to help!
MuseScore version attached; as you're after playback capabilities I've not taken any time to get a good layout at all.

Oh my god. Thank you so much. You have no idea how happy this makes me. I didn't think I was ever going to get a usable version for my own use, and to see it now? Just makes it that much more valuable. I'm gonna learn this asap! Seriously, thanks again!
