I'm not sure how Ultimate Guitar works for non-guitar stuff, would you mind giving me a link to something you want so I can check it out? The site might not be the most accessible in the first place, which is a whole other problem.</div><br><div class="gmail_quote gmail_quote_container"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Fri, Nov 7, 2025 at 3:03\u202fPM Beth Gustin, LPC <<a href="mailto:bethglpc@gmail.com">bethglpc@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">Hi,<br>
<br>
My understanding is ultimate guitar has piano as well as guitar. I\u2019m looking more for the piano or the horn sections of Music scores. I believe you can just select a part such as horn section or piano score, and just print that to a PDF. So my hope is I can use that and change it into a file I can read in braille. I will look further file format though, as I have not seen others.<br>
I agree you cannot convert guitar tabs to braille. But I\u2019m hoping the other instruments will work. I don\u2019t play guitar. I play trumpet and sing and some piano.<br>
<br>
I\u2019m hoping to find a way to be able to hold my own more quickly with the band. They like to site read a lot of songs and I know that is something I cannot do.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
<br>
Beth.<br>
