Fatal Error when opening a Music XML file from Audiveris

• Mar 29, 2022 - 09:13

I have utilized Audiveris (The application itself from GitHub and not the one with MuseScore) to turn multiple PDFs to Music XML files (MXLs). When I opened one of these MXLs, I get the following error

Fatal error: line 5 column 51 Namespace prefix 'xlink' not declared

This continues for each and every one of the PDFs I have converted. Additionally, nothing is shown onto the window when forced to read the files. How can this issue be fixed?

Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

The problem here is that the PDF is such poor quality. I converted it to a jpg, and cleaned it up as best I could. Converted back to pdf, and open it in a better reader. Still many errors, but less than before. I fixed what I could in the pdf and exported as mxl. Lots of work and not worth it to me to do any more.
You need a better pdf to have a ghost of a chance to do this.

There are some notation choices in the original that seem suspect.
