[Tex-music] Using font-based slurs and ties with musixchar.
I am using musixps but for some reason I want to put a font-base slur somewhere. The right one for me is in xslz20.pfb and by typing tex fontchar, xslz20 I know the right character number for me. How can I tell musixchar to fetch the character in xslz20 instead of musix20? I though it was by saying \font\mytie=xslz20 at 10pt and zcharnote c{\mytie\musixchar} but this keeps the musix20 characters.

[Tex-music] How can I say \generalmeter with a single number?
e.g. only a big "3" instead of a fraction. The manual claims you can say \generalmeter{m} "where m describes the appearance of the meter indication" but \generalmeter{\meter{3}} causes havoc.

[Tex-music] Producing a pdf document with an application without this feature
I am trying to install a PostScript printer I'll never buy for the procedure described in: http://icking-music-archive.org/scores/Pdf_scores_HOWTO.php (making a ps and converting it to pdf). But the recommended IBM 4039 LaserPrinter PS is no longer present in the list of available printers with Windows 8. Will any printer containing ps in its name do the job?

There is also http://imslpforums.org if you think your remark can be useful for other people. But you need yet another subscription. The imslp and imslpforums accounts are not linked together.
