Sharpeye can't. I played about with the demo a while back (see link to the other thread above). I found it needed a fair bit of correcting, and couldn't always handle several staves. It had particular trouble with a piano/voice piece which had two staves (piano) on the first line followed by three (p + voice) on the next. Of course, it just might not like Paddy Roberts ... I tried to get round it by doing two separate scans, but it was a lot of trouble. It's a shame; it was pretty user-friendly on the whole, and I think with a bit of patience and cleaner sheet music I could have doen more. It would be handy to convert sheet music to Noteworthy Composer format and be able to change the key (which I did), or convert to TablEdit format and try converting piano pieces to guitar arrangements (which I didn't).
