Dear Collected Wisdom, I have two stupid questions concerning software.
1. From Wayne's tablatures page, I downloaded the suite by Pachelbel both as pdf and as a tab file. In order to get the tab, I first copied the text from http://www2.cs.dartmouth.edu/~wbc/tab-serv/tablature.cgi?Baroque_lute/pachelbel.tab and saved it as a *.txt file, then changed the extension from *.txt to *.tab, and finally opened it under Fronimo, and there it was. However, when compared to the pdf, it emerges that not all notes are shown in the tab file. (That also happend with another tab file which Arto once sent me.) Why is that and how can I get around this? 2. From Clive Titmuss's page, I once downloaded a beautiful chaconne by Louis Couperin as a pdf file. From the characters and the style it is clear that Clive used Fronimo so as to create the file. By now, Acrobat Reader has been updated to version 8.0. The reader opens the file and shows the staves, but no characters. When zoomed down to, say, 75%, characters f and h appear, but nothing else. So, they are there, but don't show up. Why is that and how can I get around this? -- Mathias To get on or off this list see list information at http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/~wbc/lute-admin/index.html
