Our problem is similar--but does anybody have a fix?  The situation:

We use a music notation program called MusicProse (Generates postscript
with proprietary fonts).  PICTS clipped from MusicProse files and pasted
into Word 4 print on a Laserwriter fine (300dpi resolution) but are
often slightly inaccurate.  Notes are often printed 1 pixel row higher
than they should fall on the staff lines, and vertical lines (note stems)
are often consistently wider (say, 2 pixel columns instead of 1) than they
should be.

The notation is readable, of course, but not perfect, as it is when
printed directly from MusicProse.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
