For anyone else who may encounter a similar problem, I found this information to be very helpful.

Essentially, starting with a clean install of MikTeX, and installation of the MusixTeX package downloaded directly from the Werner-Icking Music Archive, rather than allowing MikTeX to install its own ...

bump - please see two updates. Sorry. Not thinking clearly today.

I like what I've seen of Lilypond's capabilities, and IIRC it can be interfaced to LaTeX (assuming the system is working properly, but at present I am obliged to produce pdf scores using other software then integrate them into documents using the \includepdf{} command) but I'm not sure how simple it ...

Thanks. I am trying to get a MusixTeX installation set up specifically to engrave facsimiles of early music sources notated using neumes and mensural notation forms but I'm afraid the complexity (latest problem seems to be fonts) seems to be a bit beyond me.

The part that has me baffled is the ...

I have been having another go at getting Professor Gregorio's abcPlus musical notation package going (it seems Prof. Gregorio doesn't use Windows). I have managed to isolate a problem with the ps2epsi.exe utility, but cannot determine why it is not working.

I have checked that it is located in a ...

Can you point me to any resources that might help me to solve the ps2eps problem?

Thanks,
