An even more Mac-ish GUI-ish solution is to output to pdf as normal, open the pdf in Preview, and then avail yourself of the magic shift-command-3 and shift-command-4 commands in MacOS. Both key combinations are available in any application and let you take a "picture" of either your entire desktop or a user-definable region, respectively. Obviously this isn't good for getting pngs of entire *pages* of music; but if you're wanting to crop a small snippet of music (say for a webpage or to send to the user list) then shift-command-4 is ideal. Output from both commands will appear on the desktop by default, with filenames like "Picture 1", "Picture 2", ... [Disclaimer: Heed David Fedoruk's point at the end of the thread, however; I love Lily under OS X, but I wouldn't dream of using it without the commandline.] Trevor Bača [EMAIL PROTECTED]
