Re: [Tex-music] Jazz typesetting
My congratulations too. I would like to use this font with the musixcrd package I wrote some years ago and which I dreamed of would use the Real Book font too. This seems now to bee manageable for me. I'm looking forward. Have a nice time, Robert Hennig Am 08.03.2015 um 02:08 schrieb Don Simons: I have recently assembled macros and--with lots of help from Bob Tennent--fonts, that let me do a pretty decent job of emulating the appearance of a jazz fake book. Here's an example: http://www.pchpublish.com/bbbxv/newdonbook.pdf which incidentally contains the six jazz tunes I've written over the years. I used PMX for this (of course) but there are no changes to PMX, rather, they're all in the form of new TeX macros mainly to define the fonts and do the chord symbols. I have not invested the effort of posting the new tex files, documenting how to use them, or modifying PMX to make it easier to use them. I'd certainly be willing to do the first two and get to work on the 3rd if I knew for sure there was anyone else out there who would use them. So if you are out there, post something on this list to let me know. --Don Simons --- TeX-music@tug.org mailing list If you want to unsubscribe or look at the archives, go to http://tug.org/mailman/listinfo/tex-music --- TeX-music@tug.org mailing list If you want to unsubscribe or look at the archives, go to http://tug.org/mailman/listinfo/tex-music
[TeX-music] concatenating musixtex files
Dear list, Im compiling an sheet book using pmx sources. Using tex and musixflex and input all pmx generated tex files works fine, except that for multi instrumental sheets the first bar of the line is missing (the bar which connects the staffs of the instruments). This happens for all sheets except the first. As pointed out in RE: [Tex-music] Concatenating files Andre Van Ryckeghem Sat, 08 Nov 2003 09:53:30 -0800 I did not tested this on pmx, but on musixtex. I know there are problems when you change parameters without resetting them (the second file does not take the defaults, but the last values). Examples are (between the modules): - changing staff size - changing the number of staffs of an instrument - usings lyrics (they are not closed) - altering stem length - altering inter staff and inter instrument space And many more I made a file http://users.pandora.be/avr/initsong.tex For using as \input son1\input initsong \input son1\input initsong \input son1 ... To solve some of the problems there might be some initialisation problems, because the input guards of the packages avoid an reinitialisation. I could not find the file http://users.pandora.be/avr/initsong.tex Maybye one could give me a hint how to resolve the missing bar?

[TeX-music] Multiple line footline
Hello Stefan,
you might try something like
\\footline={\hfil\copyright{} 1989 Company}\
in pmx or
\footline={\hfil\copyright{} 1989 Company}
in musixtex.
If you need two lines then try
\footline{\hfil\vbox{\hbox{copyright{} 1989}\hbox{Company}}\hfil}
which centers the lines.
regards,
Robert

Sometimes I get frustrated when finding that I don't know that much TeX...
How do I do such a simple task as putting several lines in the footline?
On every page footer I want to print information like:
(C) 1989 Company
All Rights Reserved
But I only end upp screwing things up because I try to use LaTeX box
commands in plain TeX, which makes me whish I was the owner of Knuths
TeXbook, which wouldn't help anyway since I never have the time to read
it... :-)

[TeX-music] musixcrd announcement
Dear musixtex community, I like to introduce the musixcrd package which Don placed at http://icking-music-archive.org/software/musixtex/add-ons/musixcrd.tgz This package should aide in the typesetting of chord symbols commonly used in jazz-scores and so on. It is far from beeing complete but may be serve as a starting point. Contributions are welcome. best regards, Robert Hennig -- .~. robert.hennig /v\ @cognitec.com _// \\_ @freylax.de ( ) ^`~'^ ___ TeX-music mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://icking-music-archive.org/mailman/listinfo/tex-music
