Thank you. Now that I've downloaded the bugfix version of xslz20.pfb -- which I could swear I'd done long ago, but evidently never got round to after all -- Acrobat Reader 5 does display the ties in the score when generated with dvipdfm. I notice that the file size decreases quite dramatically when I generate the PDF with dvipdfm -- it comes out as just over 320K as against 480-odd via dvips and GSView. However, for some reason the Palatino Narrow font I use to indicate fret numbers in my barre chord macros comes out as italic in the dvipdfm-processed file. PDF happens...
