I’m developing a website for a church where music scores will be available on a particular part of the website for the orchestra members, and I have no idea how to do that. I was thinking of using the class mPDF to take advantage of the download function that the class already offers, but I don’t know if it would work because I wouldn’t know how to demarcate the notes in the scores on HTML, to be able to present them in the class mPDF.

I’m in need of a north to develop this, will someone help me?

  • Do you already have the files? You just need to know how to make the print request is this?

  • @Erloncharles I don’t have these files, what is the extension of these files? I would actually like to do something like this: (https://musopen.org/sheetmusic/40128/ernest-walker/viola-sonata-op29/). You know how to do this?

  • In this example you gave it is using the integration code of Google drive to make the PDF display, but you can also use the PDFJS that for some time is and native extension of Firefox PDF display, but it is possible to use on your system

  • OK @Erloncharles, I get it, more while sheet music? It will be an image?

  • The scores are inside the PDF file, they are not generated. That’s what you were thinking?

  • First you need to consider the sheet music as a normal PDF. I’ve used a lot of sheet music and they were all PDF. Then in the administrative area have a file upload field. I would do this.

  • is quite a job.. there are some means to solve. Can do with HTML5 canvas, still images or vector images like svg.

Use the Vexflow to mount the sheet music. With the HTML mounted just generate the PDF.

It is simple to use Vexflow, first create the HTML element:

<canvas width=700 height=100"></canvas>

Now just render:

var canvas = $("div.one div.a canvas")[0];
var renderer = new Vex.Flow.Renderer(canvas,
Vex.Flow.Renderer.Backends.CANVAS);

var ctx = renderer.getContext();
var stave = new Vex.Flow.Stave(10, 0, 500);
stave.addClef("treble").setContext(ctx).draw();

See the complete example here. Access the Official repository
