I don't think this will work well; but you could use Acrobat to save the PDF files as TIFF files and then read them into Finale.

I'd like to be able to do that myself.

BUT - it's a copyright issue.

Sheet music is quite often even printed on paper too large to work well in a copier. Same reason.

I use Ghostscript to convert to TIFF (it's free) and then run that into SharpEye and produce MusicXML for importing into Finale or Sibelius. It works better than I expected.

Photoscore imports(reads) them directly into Sibelius. Don't know about Finale.
