Thank you - The comparison with LilyPond is now up on the Denemo website:
http://denemo.org/compareSibelius altogether, these examples (not selected to favor LilyPond, chosen by MuseScore and at random from IMSLP) show the benefit of not trying to typeset note-by-note as the music is entered. This method of comparison is not robust against manipulation, however: Sibelius and Finale could take extra care typesetting when importing music, but my guess is that they haven't bothered. If anyone would like to hand enter some of that music to see if the MusicXML import is doing anything fancy that would be good (but a lot of work, of course, else you wouldn't be reading here :) ) Richard On Wed, 2013-07-24 at 22:10 +0100, Phil Holmes wrote: > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Richard Shann" <richard.sh...@virgin.net> > To: "Phil Holmes" <m...@philholmes.net> > Cc: "Mats Bengtsson" <mats.bengts...@ee.kth.se>; <lilypond-user@gnu.org> > Sent: Wednesday, July 24, 2013 5:35 PM > Subject: Re: Comparing LilyPond with Sibelius, Finale, Musescore etc > > > > Great!
