One caveat - the individual music OCR programs that produce the preliminary files (usually nowadays music XML) to import into Finale ,etc. have their own sometimes finicky requirements for resolution and the compression method used in writing the pdf. So it's often easier to scan using the OCR program's interface, which is already aware of its own needs, than it is to scan with your computer's or your scanner's native scanning interface.
