Dear Br. Samuel and Fr. Pierre,

I just did a quick experiment to export an score to a separate .eps file and 
then include it in a .tex document with Chinese & Latin - it is much more 
straightforward than I, a LaTeX newbie, imagined. The only problem is that it 
cannot cross pages automatically. Now I understand why your solution 2 is one 
line per page. Would you please share with me the template?

Thanks,
Michael

Dear Br. Samuel and Fr. Pierre,

Thank you for your advices!

When we started evaluating the feasibility of this project a few weeks ago (and 
now we are still in the process), solution 2 was one of the technical options 
put forward with but was eventually vetoed due to the loss of quality and 
potential workload involved. We even looked into a few other possibilities such 
as importing the PDF score into a word processing software e.g. Pages on Mac 
(thanks to Élie and Sr. Maria for their wonderful advices) but it turned out to 
be imperfect. There were two major problems as I see: 1) the image quality was 
impaired by pixelization, and 2) the image and/or PDF could not cross page 
automatically.

What if I export the scores to EPS files, and insert them into a .tex project 
in which luatex-ja is used to support Chinese/Japanese? Can an EPS image cross 
pages automatically?

Thanks,
Michael

Dear Michael

If you want to use the solution 2. of Br. Samuel, I can provide you
files to produce that kind of output.
