Hello list, Joshua,
If Personal Composer exports NIFF, then you can give my converter
niff2ly a try: it reads NIFF and generates. Nowadays, it is in a public
I mean: reads NIFF and generates lilypond.
git repo: https://github.com/rfhh/lily-contribs subdirectory niff2ly. In
niff2ly/, there is a README that explains how to build.
If you are not conversant with 'make' and friends, I once did a Windows
build (with the compatibility system mingw). If you are interested, let
me know.

If I remember correctly, and backed up by

, Personal Composer could import MusicXML, MIDI and NIFF but only
export MIDI and NIFF. Your best bet therefore is to use midi2ly as a
starting point for input.

Hello,
I searched the archives (and also search engines) and couldn't
find a
discussion about converting Personal Composer (.pc files) into
Lilypond,
so I thought I would ask if anyone knows of a conversion tool.
I could manually engrave it again from the PDF output that I have,
but
it would be quicker if there is a tool for conversion.
I have never heard of that software.
There is limited MusicXML import functionality with LilyPond
(different projects have been working on that; musicxml2ly,
philomelos), also there’s midi2ly. AFAIK both can be used without
problem for very basic input, but as soon as it gets more
complicated, heavy manual editing is required, and often it’s cheaper
to create LilyPond code from scratch.
So if Personal Composer has MusicXML or MIDI export, you could give
either a shot.
Best, Simon
