You first need to convert it into a MuseScore file.
Best by entering it by hand, alternative is using some OMR software, like e.g. Audiveris

Thank you for your reply. I didn't ask what application converts PDFs to native .mscz files. but thank you anyway.
The correct answer to my question, which I discovered later --but I couldn't find a way to get to my posted message!-- is using "Import PDF" from the File menu. However, doing that 1) takes eons and 2) the resulted .mscx file really sucks!
