The image below is from a PDF. When I print it out, the "#" symbol looks normal !?

I did come up with a method. But I wanted to use it in PMX, enabling PMX to replace ordinary quarters and 8ths with X-notes. So it got very ugly. Didn't use musixper at all, except for clues on how to substitute an alternate symbol for a notehead. If anyone cares to have a look, I'd appreciate it if you could figure out how to do this more efficiently. Unfortunately you'll need to have installed the jazz fonts and musixjaz.tex to compile the sample file. While we're at it, does anyone have any idea why the "#" symbol in the subtitle looks weird? I got the same result both with ghostview and with acrobat distiller. --Don > -----Original Message----- > From: TeX-Music [mailto:tex-music-boun...@tug.org] On Behalf Of Don > Simons > Sent: Saturday, August 26, 2017 12:51 PM > To: 'Werner Icking Music Archive' <tex-music@tug.org <mailto:tex-music@tug.org> > > Subject: [Tex-music] X - noteheads > > musixper activates commands like \doqu which give notes that have an X > symbol as a notehead.
