General ⇒ MusixTeX: Problem with adding lyrics. Unexpected questionmarks.

[MimiKLM]

Hi,

I have an unexpected behavior. When I latex my tex file

Code: Select all

latex.exe test.tex

and then do the pdfout of dvi

Code: Select all

dvipdfm -p a4 test.dvi

I see what I don't want to see.

I'm expecting lyrics in the first extract and no lyrics in the second. I have lyrics in first as I want, but in the extract just underneath the first one I see the question marks.

CODE:

Code: Select all

What I've forgotten about?

Hi Mimi,

welcome to the forum!

I think you better set \assignlyrics1{} without argument instead of doing nothing, so the lyrics will be empty. When I tested your example with that, it came out without question marks.

Many thanks, it works!
