Thanx, that works now. But the resulting image is very bad (not usable). The 
resolution is way to low, the title is missing, the entire page layout is 
wrong (e.g. the vertical distance between staffs is much to big). Is there 
any way to solve these problems, too?

The reason I need the scores in an image-format is that I'm usually working 
under Linux, but, since my PC doesn't have a printer, I have to print 
it on another PC (Win95) which has neither Lilypond nor TeX nor Ghostscript 
(nor anything else...) installed. Is there a better way to do this?

Thanx,
Dominic
