Ravel - Prix de Rome Fugues.

Hello! I have found three 4-part fuges that Ravel composed for the Prix de Rome . They date from 1900-1905. They are written in four staves, they have no phrasings nor dynamics, the engraving style seems to date from the 1970s, the tiltles are in French and there are no plate numbers. Daphnis told m...

Copyrighted Typesets of Albéniz's Iberia

Hello again! I have come across some typesets of the first and second cahiers of Albéniz's Iberia. As the scans we have at the moment are horrible, I think it would be great to have a better version of that work. The thing is that they have been edited by a Luis Fernando Pérez, who is obviously aliv...

Pre 1923 Score of somebody who died in 1979

Hello! I am thinking of scanning Julius Caloff's transcription of the Hymn to the Sun , from Rimski-Korsakov's Opera Le Coq d'Or . The copyright notice is from 1922, but Chaloff died in 1979. Since I had a bad experience when my scans of Schubert's 3 Violin Sonatas were temporarily blocked (even tho...

Re: Margin Removing - PDFs

As I said, I have already uploaded it: http://www.imslp.org/wiki/File:Op.18,_Allegro_de_Concert_(1896).pdf (it is the 3rd version) The file is not too big, but the original one (1st version) was smaller. However, it is not 50MB big (as it was before)! I am making all this in order to learn how to do...

Re: Margin Removing - PDFs

Well, according to Adobe help, the program uses CCITT Group 4 encoding when saving monochrome images as a PDF without asking, so it cannot be that, but thank you for your interest!

Re: Margin Removing - PDFs

I have converted the images to TIFF and then back to PDF but it is still about 2.5 times the size it was originally. As now that size makes it uploadable to the IMS...
