What is a PDF add-on, and what can I do with it?

Our standard Musicnotes sheet music product includes the option to print your purchased music and/or download the digital copy to any of our free Musicnotes apps.

Once you have either previously purchased the standard Musicnotes sheet music product, or at the time of purchasing the standard Musicnotes sheet music product, you will have the opportunity to also purchase the PDF add-on product for the select arrangement.

The PDF add-on is a static, digital file for use on mobile devices and computers for personal use only, and PDF add-ons are not authorized for printing. The benefit of the PDF add-on files is that they can be used independently of the Musicnotes apps within third-party applications and programs.*

Features:

• Once purchased, the PDF add-ons are available to download in any or all of the available keys for the standard sheet music product
  
  • Please note: Standard Musicnotes sheet music products will list available transpositions on the product page; it is not necessary to purchase the PDF add-on to "unlock" transpositions.
  • For additional information about transpositions, please see How do I change the key of a digital sheet music product available on your site? and How do I change the key of something I've already printed?
• Can be viewed independently from the Musicnotes apps
• PDF add-ons are included with purchases of standard sheet music products made while your account has an active Musicnotes Pro - Premium or Musicnotes Pro (formerly Pro - Plus) subscription.
  • Please note: for any standard Musicnotes sheet music products purchased prior to subscribing to either the Musicnotes Pro - Premium or Musicnotes Pro (formerly Pro - Plus) plans, you will need to purchase the PDF add-ons separately. For these individual purchases, regardless whether your Pro - Premium or Pro (formerly Pro - Plus) subscription is active or not, you will have continuing access to these; should your Pro - Premium or Pro (formerly Pro - Plus) subscription lapse, you will not be able to access the PDF add-ons (included with your Pro - Premium or Pro [formerly Pro - Plus] subscription) for standard sheet music products purchased during your subscription period. 

*If you have purchased and use the iOS apps forScore or forScore mini, you will not need to purchase the PDF add-ons; Musicnotes customers can simply sign in to their Musicnotes account within the forScore app, under Services, and access their purchased music.
