Under the heading of "There's gotta be a better way."
I have never been able to scan a page of music when there is a facing page. And with some of my music books I am just not able to fold the facing page part of the book underneath the other half. So, I've done the following.
First of all, I use my phone to take the scan since it is easier to hold steady. I scan both facing pages at the same time, so that the image contains both page 1 and page 2. I then move it to Dropbox from my phone and rename it to SongName1. I also take a copy of it and rename the copy to SongName2. Then I import the two images into MSP on my notepad from Dropbox.
So they will be imported as SongName with two pages. I'll crop the first page removing the rightmost image which was the original page 2. Then I'll crop the second page to remove the leftmost image which was the original page 1. Finally I have my 2 page SongName in MSP. What a pain!
...begging for a better approach.
