Hi,
Reading this discussion, I like to draw your attention to the 6000 BIAB files I converted into musicXML. It is quite easy to compare the results and give comments, in order to evaluate if the tool PDFtoMusic Pro is good enough (imho it is) to produce worthwhile and useful musicXML files (or .mxl) from BIAB for any notation program.
The 6000 BIAB files have been batch-printed. The results can be seen here:

After conversion to musicXML they have been imported into MuseScore and batch reconverted into 3 other formats (after a fixed simple filter I created myself): .mscz, .mxl and PDF again. In fact this new PDF representation is the result of the musicXML. The result is printed with a MuseScore template, so measures with too crowded notes ( in BIAB) are represented in a different better way. Additionally I choosed a greater chord size which sometimes leads to overlapping chords, but that was MY choice. The results can be seen here:
