Update: I didn't get the companion app to work, but I used the tablet to convert, then copied the files back to the computer to manipulate the images.
Question on resolution: Is there a known value for a page that should work for most scores on letter-sized sheets?
The default was *very* fuzzy, with jpgs about 150KB. You may want to bump that up.
The app shows the original pdf's resolution (in some point size?) with height of 612, so I multiplied that by 10 and got hi-res jpgs at 3.5MB per page. Maybe overkill, but I figured I could knock it down later. I'm not a graphics guy and very seldom get into such things, but this was a hand-written score that needed cleanup so I just used paint.exe to do what I needed.
It all worked fine, but my new pages are still 10 times bigger than the original as I haven't found a handy tool to reduce it without losing quality.
Does anyone have any recommendations? Is it time I bought into photoshop?
Thanks!
