I'm copying a score that contains alto saxophones. We are in the Key of E Major, and my altos are being automatically bumped to 5 flats, but the original key I'm copying off of is in 7 sharps. How do I make it so I can just copy the part over as written and not do the every-note-brain-crunch to put it in a different key? The part is 70 pages long... so I'd really rather not do manual transpositions :/

If there are less than 12 staves in the score, I'd scan it, save as a PDF, and open it in photoscore. Make corrections and transfer to Sibelius.
