Hi Don,
Thanks for your rapid help.
I 'm sorry for being so imprecise. What I really wanted is this:
This is an excerpt from the 1st violin of the 1st Symphonie of Mahler.

Is there a way to compress the cue notes horizontally?

Regards, Dieter

I finally figured out that you’re asking about cue notes. Short
answer: it’s not easy. You have to use inline TeX. There are some
macros in pmx.tex that simplify some things a little bit:

\def\smno#1{\off{.17\qn@width}\tinynotesize#1\normalnotesize\off{-.17\qn@width}}%

\def\pmno#1{\roffset{.08}{\smallnotesize#1\normalnotesize}}%

\def\smq#1{\smno{\zql{#1}}}\def\smc#1{\smno{\zcl{#1}}}%

\def\smh#1{\smno{\zhl{#1}}}%

But you’re going to have to do some work to get horizontal spacing
right for your example, since while \smno makes the notes small, it
uses the \noteskip that’s already been set. Here’s a short example you
should study, extracted from my published edition of Nicola Matteis
“Ayres for Violin, the Fourth Part”:

How could I do this in PMX?
