Sorry I couldn't reply sooner; I'm away from home.

Several time in the past, I've come up against EXACTLY the same issue that Andre has raised. It's due to a FEATURE of PMX/scor2prt that I can't exactly explain. But I can quickly tell you how to fix things: Don't repeat the "/" at the end of the line. In other words, for example, instead of

...
%%
[ Some PMX stuff for part 1 to go in score] /
%1[ Some alternate PMX stuff for part 1 to go in part 1] /
...

you should use

...
%%
[ Some PMX stuff for part 1 to go in score]
%1[ Some alternate PMX stuff for part 1 to go in part 1]
/
...

OK? Sorry about that; you'll just have to remember to do it this way.

Thanks Cornelius for looking at it.
And yes it seems i am doing something wrong, but still:

I cannot us '\sk\sk\sk\sk\OB\bsk\bsk\bsk\bsk\ a0 /' in a single staff code,
it should be '\sk\OB\bsk\ a0 /' or  '%1 a0 ob /', i have to make a
differencebetween the director score and the instrument 1 score.

This is what i think i have done:
the '% 1' is meant as an ordinary comment (the number of the bar)
the:
    %%
    \sk\sk\sk\sk\OB\bsk\bsk\bsk\bsk\ a0 /
is meant for something only in the director score
and the '%1 a0 ob /' is meant for something only in the score of instrument
1

In your example i find '\sk\sk\sk\sk\OB\bsk\bsk\bsk\bsk\ a0 /' in both
scores. In the score of instrument 1 this result in no breath at all (in
fact he is moved to the last bar).

My version of scor2prt is from 2004, is this to old?
