Is this scan's quality acceptable for IMSLP?
I have a decent sized collection of sheet music (30+) that has never been scanned before and I would like to share it the the IMSLP. Unfortunately, I don't have a scanner large enough to properly accommodate the music due to its large size (mostly 10'x14'). Recently, I discovered the Adobe Scan app, which allows you to scan a document using your phone, but I'm not sure if the quality of the scans meets IMSLP standards. The attached link goes to one of these scans. Could someone please tell me if the quality is good enough for me to upload scans from the program to the IMSLP site?https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ZjZns7 ... sp=sharing

Hello,
We would be happy to accept these, and the quality of it looks pretty good. However with sheet music like this, the color should be in black and white for uploading to the site because having them in color or grayscale is not great to have for performance ready editions to download, so I would strongly recommend changing the color to black and white instead.

Thanks for the quick reply and input. I've gone ahead and uploaded a black and white version of the score to the IMSLP website. https://imslp.org/wiki/File:PMLP1464701 ... %C3%A9.pdf
