Not unless it's for insertion in another publication. There seem to be many
issues about PS/EPS/PDF.

It's fairly straightforward to create a PDF document. This works for me,
using Distiller:

1. Choose a Postscript printer as the printer (I use Distiller 3 as my
printer for this stage).
2. Print the entire score to a .ps file using archive format, including all
fonts (important).
3. Distill the score with the resolution you want (lower for screen/download).

You can also print directly to PDF with Distiller 4, but I've had
unsatisfactory results this way. A number of PDF virtual printers also
exist, including 5D and RoboPDF. 5D may no longer be available, and I've
downloaded but haven't yet tried it.
