It contains ready-to-print sheet music, most in the form of <a href="#acrobat">PDF</a> files (indicated by the icon <img src="../pdf.gif" border="0" alt="PDF">). A few scores are only available in compressed <a href="#print">Postscript</a> format (indicated by the icon <img src="../gs.gif" border="0" alt="postscript">).</p> <p>The main index is the list of composer names on the homepage. Each name is linked to a separate page listing and linking to that composer's available works. On the composer's page, clicking on his name (printed in <strong><a href="ftp://sunsite.dk/projects/icking-music-archive/web/scores/">Bold</a></strong>) will lead to a navigable file listing of the directory. This would not normally be necessary, but it would enable you to see the size of the files before downloading, and would occasionally give access to supplemental files not mentioned in the composer's page, e.g. brief README files concerning the composer or composition.</p> <p>Most links to scores in the composer's page are followed by the icon <img src="../img.gif" width="14" height="11" alt="image">. If you click on that icon usually the <strong>first</strong> page of the score containing music is shown as a graphic image. For some browsers this is done in a new window which is reused for the next image. The resolution of these images is always inferior to that of the PDF and Postscript files; they are only for quick viewing and are not meant for printing. <img src="../info.gif" width="9" height="12" alt="info"> leads you to additional information. <img src="../snd.gif" width="20" height="13" alt="sound"> points at MIDI-files or other sound files.</p> <p>For most works the email address of the composer or editor is given. Use this address for any feedback, praise, criticism, blame, etc., and to inquire regarding permission for public performance of the modern works.</p> <!-- <p>Either go (back) to the <a href="../index.html">main page</a> or click the name of the composer or editor in the <a href="../index.html#instr_music">instrumental</a> or <a href="../index.html#voc_music">vocal</a> music sections.</p> --> <h3><a name="copyright">The copyright of the archive</a></h3> <p>The archive contains "free" sheet music, free for non-commercial usage. This means that you may download the files for viewing or printing as paper copies, which may not be sold. It does not mean, however, that you may distribute digital copies of these editions in the given format or any other converted format. The right to print the music does not imply the right for public performances if the music is not already in the public domain. Please contact the composers concerning the conditions for public performance.</p> <h3><a name="contribution">Your contribution to the archive</a></h3> <p>To add some stuff to this section, you need to upload it to the incoming directory of the Werner Icking Music Archive, and inform the archive editor about your upload. To upload it, depending on your browser type you may be able simply to point your browser to <a href="ftp://mutex-anon@upload.sunsite.dk/">ftp://mutex-anon@upload.sunsite.dk/</a>. When prompted for a password, enter <em><strong>mutex</strong></em>. If that doesn't work, try connecting to <em>upload.sunsite.dk</em> with an ftp client using the username <em><strong>mutex-anon</strong></em> and the password <em><strong>mutex</strong></em>. After uploading, inform the archive editor of your upload by sending an e-mail to <a href="mailto:scancm@biobase.dk">Christian Mondrup</a>. PDF is now the primary format of ready-for-print sheet music on the archive, although other file formats will be accepted. The page layout of your scores should be set to <em>US-letter</em> size in order to make them fit on both American <em>letter</em> (8.5" x 11") and European <em>A4</em> (210mm x 297mm) paper. Contributors are encouraged to upload their source files used for typesetting along with the final score in which case the source will be made available to web guests, but that is definitely <strong>not</strong> a requirement for contributing to the archive.</p> <h3><a name="print">How to print the music</a></h3> <p>PDF files can be displayed on screen and sent to printer by means of the freeware programme from Adobe, <a href="http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/alternate.html" target="_blank" name="acrobat">Adobe Acrobat Reader</a>. Postscript files must be uncompressed for printing using <a href="ftp://sunsite.dk/projects/icking-music-archive/web/gzip124.zip">GZIP</a> unless you'e using newer versions of <a href="http://www.cs.wisc.edu/~ghost/index.html">Ghostscript, Ghostview & GSview</a>. There is an easy-to-install WIN9x/NT-version consisting of <a href="ftp://sunsite.dk/projects/icking-music-archive/web/gs650w32.exe">Ghostscript</a> and <a href="ftp://sunsite.dk/projects/icking-music-archive/web/gsv29w32.exe">GSview</a> on our server.</p> <!-- <h3><a name="A4letter">Printing A4 Postscript </a><a name="A4letter1">files on letter size paper</a></h3> <p>Postscript-files in this archive are often generated for A4-size paper (210mm x 297mm). You may print them nevertheless on letter-size paper (8.5" x 11") by inserting the following lines into the ps-files at a convenient place :-). That may be just after "%%EndSetup" and before "%%Page: 1 1" or may be just after the 1st line.</p> <pre>%%-----------------------------------------------------------------snip------/GMD_realshowpage /showpage load def /GMD_myshowpage { GMD_realshowpage 0.94 0.94 scale 26 50 translate } bind def /showpage { GMD_myshowpage } bind def 0.94 0.94 scale 26 50 translate %%-----------------------------------------------------------------snip------</pre> <ul> <li>0.94/0.94 scales ("magnifies") the page in horizontal and vertical direction</li> <li>26/50 moves the page in horizontal and vertical direction by 26 resp. 50 units (of 1/72 inch).</li> <li>You may need different factors (e.g. 0.95 0.95) or shifts (e.g. 14 49). But if you change them, change <strong>both</strong> occurances, the first for all pages but the first, the second for the first page.</li> <li>The given settings move the page origin - the lower left corner - up by 18 mm (297mm-11") or 50 units. They shrink the page with factor 0.94 (11"/297mm). The page origin is moved to the right by 9.25mm ((8.5"-(210mm*0.94))/2) or 26 units.</li> </ul> You may experiment with a <a href="./mozart/kv423+4/testpage.ps.gz">testpage</a>. <p><a href="fnachbaur@netscape.net">Fred Nachbaur</a> found another solution, "which might be easier for people who don't like to edit PS files. Load the file into GSview as usual, set Media to A4 if not already. Print to file, using pdfwrite driver, give it .pdf file extension. Load the PDF file into <a href="http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/alternate.html" target="_blank">Adobe Acrobat Reader</a>, and use it's "Shrink to Fit Page" option. Works great!"</p> --> <hr> <address> 2001-02-08:1996-04-23, Werner Icking (1943-2001), <a href="http://www.gmd.de/">GMD</a> </address> <address> 2002-04-08, <a href="mailto:scancm@biobase.dk">Christian Mondrup</a>, <a href="http://icking-music-archive.sunsite.dk/">Werner Icking Music Archive</a> </address> <address> 2002-04-08, <a href="mailto:donaldsimons@home.com">Don Simons</a>, <a href="http://icking-music-archive.sunsite.dk/">Werner Icking Music</a> </address> <p><a href="http://validator.w3.org/check/referer"><img border="0" src="../valid-html401.gif" alt="Valid HTML 4.01!" height="31" width="88"></a></p> </body> </html>
