That it does, especially if you send output to a laser printer.  Its
darn near publication quality stuff.

I think you can get the "Apprentice" version (what I bought) for alot
cheaper - maybe around $150 or so.  The limitations on the Apprentice
are 1) no postscript, and 2) only 5 page max score length.  Number 2 is
not a real problem though, since you can print as many consecutive
score files as you wish.  Its just slightly more inconvienent when
editing stuff near page breaks.
