PDF Conversion
Hi
I am trying to import/convert a relatively simple one page good quality PDF but I get strange results.
I've uploaded both files and as you can see I've got lots of greyed out transients that I can't delete.
If I delete the new line characters it simply merges the transients into the score resulting in a complete mess.
How can I simply tidy the results up by deleting the transients etc?

There are two voices.
Highlighting the notes you'll notice the different colors Blue and Green.
The rests of the first voice can not be deleted.
Select a measure: Edit / Voices ...> Exchange Voice 1-2, see: https://musescore.org/en/handbook/voices-0
Thanks for your reply and help but I've basically got an imported score that's useless to me as I can't edit it back to anything useful.
I don't understand why the PDF converter thinks there are two voices and I also can't understand why I can't ask MS to remove one of the voices or split the stave into a two stave system.
Is there any sort of pre-processing I could do with the original PDF (which is very high quality) to help improve the accuracy of the import process?

Some small change are in the file that i attached above.
AFAIK Audiveris (the "engine" of conversion of MuseScore.com) it requires that the PDF has been generated by a notation software. Have you already looked for this particular score on MuseScore.com? If the score is not particularly difficult, perhaps it is easier to enter notes directly.

That score apparently had been created with Sibelius, as the document properties reveal
