Dear ABC friends, ...And now for something completely different!
When abcm2ps creates its postscript output, it shades the staff lines by adding tiny gray lines beneath the black lines. This looks wonderful when you print the output, but unfortunately it doesn't look as nice when you convert the resulting PS file to gif or png for display on the web. Is it possible to instruct (or modify) abcm2ps to create pure "black and white" PS output (without gray values) and to draw the staff lines as thin as possible? This way the output would look much clearer on the web. In fact I found a music program (musicator) that creates exactly the type of clear and simple gif images that I need for the web. Here follows an example: http://www.joods.nl/~chazzanut/Maoz-Marcello.gif Note also that the thin sans-serif letters used here are much better readable on the web than the thick Times letters that are used by default by abcm2ps. Now, is it possible to tweak abcm2ps to create the same type of clear low resolution output as musicator? And what postscript font should I select?
