kpdf -- which won't do you any good if you're not running linux -- works fine for the lilypond output I generate. > I have created many PDF's myself through other programs that looked > WYSIWYG perfect. Apparantly lilypond is not that greatest at > producing PDF's. The printer output was excellent though. PDF's display elements are a proper subset of postscript, and you can (wiht the right software) go round-trip from each format through the other one without loss. Many display programs don't handle _all_ the postscript vector constructs; it's the usual tradeoff between fast and complete. Printer drivers, on the other hand, are expected to handle all of it. They're not going to _add_ information that isn't there in the original PDF, after all. -- Graydon _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
