The problem is usually related to music fonts which are not read by the web browser. The best thing to do is save the PDF file to your hard drive, then try to view it with Acrobat Reader, not with the web browser. If the score still is not appearing correctly, please e-mail me at ornes@cpdl.org. On rare occasions the PDF files are incorrectly made, and the font information is lost.
