I would like to send a full size(8-1/2 x 11) sheet of music via E-Mail to a friend. I Use Lotus Word Pro and Outlook Express. My graphics program is GRAPHICS WORKSHOP.
How can I do that? The portion of the NWC Manual covering MOVE YOUR SONG FILE TO ANOTHER APPLICATION procedure does not do the job for me.
Thanks for any suggestions.
My favourite way of moving NWC files around between friends and acquaintances who have not yet had the foresight to purchase NWC is by converting them to pdf files; there have been a number of discussions about how to do this in previous fora, but I favour Fineprint pdf Factory which I downloaded from the internet.
Another possibility (easier) is to use File | Print Preview, navigate to the page you want to send, then click the COPY button. Select "Placeable Metafile (*.wmf)" and click OK. An export dialog box shows up, browse to where you want to save the file and give it a filename ending in .wmf. You can then send this to your friend, who can open it with most windows-based graphics programs, including IrfanView (http://www.irfanview.com).
Another possibility: have your friends download the stand-alone NoteWorthy Player (http://www.noteworthysoftware.com/player/), they can then watch the score scroll by as they listen to the piece. Finally, the NoteWorthy Browser Plugin (http://www.noteworthysoftware.com/composer/plugin.htm) might work out; it even allows printing from within the plugin. The one thing I'm not sure of is whether it works with Outlook Express. (I know it works with Netscape/Mozilla's mail client, but can't help with OE.)
It won't work with OE but you can always drag-drop the file attachment (.NWC) to an open OE window.
I presume you mean drag 'n' drop to an open IE (Internet Explorer) window?
Of course. Sorry, my mistake. the second OE should be read IE.
