Thank you very much for your help. Yes, I did use pdftex to make pdf. Using dvipdfm the numbers became visible. But I might have another problem with musixflx because the musical layout doesn't look as good as Christian's (see enclosure) even though we used the same tex-file and the same procedure. I also never managed to achieve a linebreak with musixflx (Yes musixflx is installed :-)). Does anybody know a solution to this problem? Many thanks!
