I guess you mean one of the three scores you obtain with a Google search with "viola.pdf" site:http://petrucci.mus.auth.gr (the URL's wouldn't fit into this window :) ).

These are viola parts of works by Beethoven and Brahms. Many music typesetters can provide such scores. I hope this page http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_scorewriters will help you to choose the right one.

I found the score you mean in the Spanish forum!

http://petrucci.mus.auth.gr/imglnks/usi ... .Viola.pdf

But apparently this one is not a retypeset but a scan.

So what is being asked here? Are you trying to typeset parts, or what?

Yes, I would like to help the community, digitizing some works for viola, for example, C minor Concerto (Johann Christian Bach) for Viola, as it is a scanned PDF posted, they might recommend a notation editor that has strength the visual appearance of the score.

You can use any number of typesetting programs like Lilypond, Finale, or Sibelius. Does this answer your question?

Perhaps one should mention musescore, because it is free and has a WYSIWYG-Editor.

I'll put this in application: The German scorewriter-comparison page: http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Notensatzprogramm has some material the English one hasn't and vice versa :)

In this thread http://www.mail-archive.com/tex-music@t ... 03227.html you can see how WIMA and Google allow you to see examples of scores written with a specific scorewriter. Simply adapt the MusiXTeX or Lilypond line to musescore or any other scorewriter.

But if the scorewriter is WYSIWYG the paragraph with Uncompressing...will not be relevant :-)
