INFORMATION
The file saved will be called
10000075.zip
When you unzip the file, just
save the 2 files, 10000075.sco and 10000075.htm
on to your desktop or other location.
Make sure that both files on are in the same folder or both on the
desktop as they need to reside in the same location.
The reason is when you double-click on the .htm file it expects
the
matching .sco file to be in the same location.
Once the 2 files have
been saved, double-click on the 10000075.htm file and the
scorch file will open in your default browser where you can play,
transpose and print unlimited copies!
TIP: You can rename the htm file to anything you want such as
MapleLeafRag.htm to make it easier to find your music. Do not change the .htm extension
If you become an Emerald Member, just download all your portable
scorch files to the same folder or
location, and rename the .htm files and you can start building you
own library of digital sheet music that you can access and print in
any key and at any time.
