Export XML from Photoscore

• Sep 2, 2021 - 03:00

I scanned a pdf into Photoscore, made a few adjustments, and saved as an XML. When I try to bring it up in Musescore I get this message:

File 'C:/Users/joynerc/Documents/Scanned Music/Silent Night For All.xml' is not a valid MusicXML file

Fatal error: line 10 column 108 Invalid character reference.

How do I find line 10 column 108 to fix the issue?


Comments

Open it in a text editor, cursor down to the 10th line, scroll right until you see something funny. or just attach it here and someone can help.

There are invalid characters in line 10, which contains the rights statement.

MuseScore reports (click the button details in the "invalid MusicXML" dialog): Fatal error: line 10 column 108 Invalid character reference.

Finale NotePad reports: XML fatal error in file Silent Night For All.xml at line 10:
Character reference "&#xd800" is an invalid XML character.

In the attached file all non-ASCII characters have been removed from the copyright statement, it imports into MuseScore, but with some timing issues (it is reported as corrupted).
