You can't truly convert a PDF to MuseScore. You can try File >Import PDF and a third-party web-based program will attempt to interpret your PDF-format score but mostly you are better off entering the notes into MuseScore yourself. You can either enter them exactly as they are and then use MuseScore transpose the piece (Tools >Transpose) or just transpose in your head and enter into Ab directly.

I tried the import and the result has only a few errors: the grace notes and the multi-bar rests mainly. This can easily be corrected.
One main problem with the PDF import is that it assumes that the key is the concert key - it doesn't recognize that it was written for a transposing B♭ clarinet/trumpet. It is therefore imported as a "voice" instrument in the key of G major, although the clarinet excerpt comes from a score in F major.
These are the steps for adjusting after the PDF import:
I hope I have understood your request correctly and have not made a mistake in my description :-).
