As NotEdit developler I unfortunately have to answer: This does not help.

The creation of an MusiXTeX-File is very complicated and NoteEdit does
its best to do the job. But especially in case of more than one voice
per staff it can happen that slurs cross other notes. I see no
chance to write an export filter which really pays attention on it.

The problem is: NoteEdit has to estimate what MusiXTeX will do. 
People who write MusiXTeX by hand use a trial-and-error loop.
This approach isn't possible for NoteEdit.

Actually, at the beginning my intention was: NoteEdit shall produce
a skeleton, which a MusiXTeX user can complete. Meanwhile it
produces viable results is many cases. But there is certainly a
rest of scores which must be corrected by hand :-((

Don't try to edit the PostScript file. This is really very
complicated. Edit the *.tex file!

It is necessary! The "flushright" instructs the LaTeX processor
to set the author and copyright information at the right hand
side of the paper.

Do you get an error ? If so: Perhaps you use "tex" instead of
"latex". Actually MusiXTeX bases on TeX. But NoteEdit covers this
with a LaTeX frame. The idea behind this is: You can add some
music historical or music theoretical texts before and/or behind
the score.
