Hello everybody,
My name is Dieter Suffenplan from Germany, and I am a "MusiXTeX" novice.
I've used "musictex" in combination with "LaTeX" two years ago to layout
two pieces of music. Since one week I'm trying to learn using
"MusiXTeX", "PMX" and "M-Tx", and my first steps typesetting notes were
successful so far. But trying to add some lyrics is the beginning of my
problems. When adding text as noted in "M-Tx" manual to my piece of
music I compile it using the process "prepmx -> pmxab -> tex -> musixflx
-> tex -> dvipdfm". But unfortunately only the notes are visible, not
the lyrics! So I tested arround but everything seems to be fine, because
there are no errors displayed during compilation or in the log files. To
find out if I'm in trouble with my "MikTeX" installation under WindowsXP
I've tested typesetting using the example "Net soos ek is" from Dirk
Laurie's "M-Tx" manual. And what should I say? Everything is fine (...
what else ...)!
So I've tried to find out what I've done wrong comparing the sources and
the resulting "*.tex" files and so on. But unfortuantely I'm unable to
find the significant difference between Dirk Laurie's and my piece of
music. Most likely I'm a blockhead or I'm too blind or something like
this, but currently I'm unable to see my mistake.
Maybe someone of you could be so kind to unplug the shelf from my head?
This would give me great pleasure!!! :-)
I've attached the file "Die_Kraehe.mtx" to this mail, and hopefully
someone will be able to help me.
Thanks a lot in advance for your help and your patience!
Kind regards,
Dieter Suffenplan
