'If it doesn’t work, your PDF file isn’t compatible to the converter. This could be due to various reasons such as the quality of the pdf, the complexity of the score or various other reasons. Feel free to try with another pdf file!'
Welcome Headwesty. I don't think it's a reason but the site has got updates. Have you tried today?
Could you try again?
And maybe you can attach a PDF (and the *.mscz) here, so someone can give you some answers.
MuseScore will load corrupt scores, you just need to hit "Ignore" to ignore the corruptions - and then fix them, using the link Jojo provided.
Not surprising at all a PDF converter would produce corrupt scores often. It's really a pretty complex AI project to read music, sorting out not just the symbols themselves but how they combine to form music in the presence of multiple staves, multiple voices within a staff, etc. Get one detail wrong and you have a measure with two few or two many beats in it. Happen pretty often, actually.
Someone said their score was reported as Corrupt. The link explains how to fix corrupt files sometimes. It may or may not work on a file reported corrupted after PDF import.
Yes, that's actually what 'experimental' means. Sometimes it works somehow, often it barely works and often it fails in dramatic ways ...
To be fair to the Audiveris project: my experience with other (commercial) converters shows that they might be better on an quantitative scale but not on a qualitatve scale.

It's results are iffy. Forget it if the score is more than about a page, too low resolution, to high resolution...
I was prepared for dodgy results but both the files I tried gave corrupt .mscz files that MuseScore couldn't load. That was surprising...

the converter gives me a file called a lot of random stuff and then when opened it's just empty, not even sheet music just an empty grey page
