[texhax] XeTex and MusiXTeX

[Rodolfo Medina]

I'm just doing my first steps on xetex...  I see it can load and display *.eps
images into its pdf output, e.g. with:

$$\vbox{\centerline{\epsfbox{/path/to/some/image.eps}}}$$

So I wonder why (pity) it doesn't show Stanislav Kneifl's postscript musical
ligatures drawn with musixtex.  Look at the following example:

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
\input musixtex
\input musixps

\nobarnumbers
\generalsignature{1}%
\generalmeter{\meterfrac34}%
\startpiece
\Notes
\upz k\ql k%
\ibu0g1\ibsluru0g\qb0g\qb0h%
\qb0i\tbu0\qb0j%
\en
\bar
\Notes
{\tslur0{'d}}\hl{'.d!}%
\en
\Endpiece

\bye
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

If you do:

 $ tex file
 $ musixflx file
 $ tex file
 $ dvips file
 $ ps2pdf file.ps
 $ xpdf file.pdf

, you'll see the ligature; instead, with

 $ xetex file
 $ musixflx file
 $ xetex file
 $ xpdf file.pdf

, the ligature is not there...  Not possible to have it work with xetex...?
It'd be nice...

Thanks,

Rodolfo
