Take a look at these threads. I'm just feeling too lazy to repost every great comment said in these threads.

I recommend ANY Finale Version that is Full. You will need to pay for it though.
Chech out this site if you're interested:

If you're going towards something free, get this:

 Finale is the most recommended. Right now you can create your sheets in finale notepad OR download musescore create your sheet export it as MusicXML Compressed, then import to finale notepad and pretty it up. i recommend finale 100% , but option 2 is the way to go for you if you are very determined.
That'll Be Quite The Item You Have!

Funny, I've already downloaded musescore. But i never knew how to use it :P
