Further investigation shows that the simplest possible PMX file with a Version 0.92 postscript slur crossing a page boundary leads to bad postscript:
================== 1 1 4 4 4 4 0 0 2 2 20 0 t ./ Ap c04 s | c04 s / ================== The file works fine with version 0.91 musixps.tex and psslurs.pro, which makes me think the error is not in PMX. While we're on the subject, there are several things about line-break ties that I'd like to ask be opened up for discussion. To my taste, the 2nd half often comes out too insubstantial, either too narrow or too short. Is there any chance for a user tweak here on any of these parameters, especially the horizontal position of the left end of the second part? Also, the shape of the first half is not as graceful as a normal tie, having a flatter center and more sharply hooked ends. I might prefer having the option to give it exactly the same shape as a normal tie of the same length. --Don Simons > -----Original Message----- > From: Don Simons [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Saturday, June 22, 2002 5:23 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Trouble with postscript slur over a page break. > > > The following MusiXTeX source runs, but produces bad Postscript. > Take out the slur over the page break and it's fine.
