[BUG] 2 corrupted scores on a page I created

Post by coulonnus »

On http://imslp.org/wiki/12_Organ_Sonatas_ ... ,_Carlo%29 Nos.4 and 6 were illegible. To check right click their numbers and download the first "revert" version. The faulty pdf's have about 30-kB size instead of about 120 kB.

When did this happen? Fortunatey a friend warned me. If I uploaded corrupted files how could the copyright reviewers possibly do their job?

Ouch, I had uploaded the non-zipped MusiXTeX sources! But who - or what - changed their extension from .tex to .pdf?

Have you tried right clicking and saving the PDFs to your Desktop? No.6 opened fine for me but No.4 I can't open at all.

Indeed with both methods - simple and right click - I still obtained the source file. I tried a new upload with a new file name. I you're ready to waste time save the bad pdf, rename it into .txt and open it with Notepad or equivalent. You will see some strange text. :)
