Dear friends,

Two questions:

1. When I send a DVI file to my HP Laserjet 2200D printer, the score
lands in the output tray stripped of all markings p, pp, ppp etc.
(They print out fine in Acrobat Reader after conversion to PDF, but
then all the ties are missing.) Can anyone suggest a remedy
(preferably, from the perspective of this mostly non-technical
computer user, one that isn't too arcane)?

2. Has anyone found a solution to the slur/tie problem in Acrobat
Reader 5 (and, on my system, 4.05 as well)? Do Stanislav's postscript
slurs (which I haven't so far been using) work around the problem?

For my own purposes I could stay at the DVI stage and fudge the
dynamic markings by substituting 12-point palatino italic for
MusixTeX's \p, \pp etc. macros, but I need to get this score to
somebody in electronic format who will want to view and print it using
-- unfortunately -- Acrobat Reader.

Thanks in advance
Eva
