Hi Tonic,

I don't know exactly what Sibelius is, but it sounds like some composing software that will write a music score for you as you play, and or allow you to edit the score direct.

If you just want to view the score:

Assuming there's a print option and he has Adobe Acrobat writer, he could print it to Adobe and then Email it to you as a .pdf.

The slightly less straight forward way would be to give him the model of your printer at home and get him to download the drivers and install them as if the printer was on his system.

He could then choose "print to file" and send you the printer file by Email. You would be unable to open the file on the screen, but you would be able to drag and drop the file onto your printer, and it should print out.

Is it possible to export Sibelius "documents" to anything else?

Just a thought, but I may be well off course!

I've just tried the "print to file" with another program on my HP Laserjet, and it wouldn't work for some reason, I'm sure its worked before, so it may be worth a go, but don't hold your breath

Last Edited after experiment failed!
