I had a couple songs I can arrange, but I'm not sure how to make the pdf files, and I have no idea how to make the mus file. Is there someone who can provide info about that or the software required? Thanks,

But yes...You'll be fine.
I see you are young and have
tremendous courage.

I'm sure you'll find it right away.

Well then, I am counting on you...

.mus files are the former default file type for Finale Music software products. You can download their free version (FinaleNotepad) here.

For making PDF's, CutePDF is, imo, the way to go. To creat a pdf, install CutePDF, then when printing a file select CutePDF as the printer.

I'd also recomend Dopdf. It doesn't have a lot of features, but it does exactly what you need for this in a quick, easy to use manner.

I used to use CutePDF till I got a laptop and since have used PDFCreator. Between the two I'd recommend the latter just because there's far more you can do. Don't get me wrong; CutePDF definitely works and it works great, but if you haven't gotten one yet I'd just suggest PDFCreator right off the bat.

I use PDF Creator as well and it's probably the best one I've used.
Try to do everything; you're bound to succeed with at least one.

I tried PDFCreator, but it didn't work all that well for me (Though it was probably because I wasn't using it correctly). CutePDF is quick and simple for creating PDF's, and that was all I needed d:
