Finished First Steps and did not find where I can take a printed piece of music, scan it and download it into Dorico for transposing/editing.
That’s because Dorico doesn’t have that feature. If you’re interested in scanning in existing music, you’ll need to use a different piece of software to do the scanning and save as MusicXML, and then import that into Dorico.
Here’s a recent review of music scanning software. The gist is that this process is far from perfect, and the results you get will depend a lot on the quality of the item you’re scanning.
