its in cursive writing and dark background, grainy, I tried doing the black/white think on the computer making background darker with white print etc... but still hard to read and wont show the entire line when enlarged, sections, so you have to keep scrolling to see whole line, just seems difficult I did scan some on my other computer at my other place and have them on there. I am a teacher, but a music one. And my eyes are not the best these days either. christy
