Hi, Dieter-- I couldn't tell from your last post whether you succeeded in compiling Luigi's example. I myself had a problem until I realized that one of the lines had folded. prepmx gets confused when that happens, but once I unfolded the line it work perfectly.
These rules for lyric placement (both in the source file and on the page) are all part of M-Tx, not musixtex. So the thing you need to study is the M-Tx manual, and any M-Tx examples you can find in the archive. Good luck and and welcome to the musixtexpmx/m-tx world. --Don Simons ---- Dieter Suffenplan <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Luigi, Hi Simon, > > At first: > Many many thanks for your help, and sorry that I've molested you with a > problem which solution is so simple!!! > > But for my apology I have to say that I also had the idea using a lyrics > style, and therefore I'd tried "Style: DUET".
