Acceptable barlines in engraved music should not be significantly thicker than staff lines.Compared to what? The thickness is based on Barenreiter BA 350;
Bärenreiter's barlines are twice as thick as their staff lines? I am extremely surprised: I think thick barlines are really ugly, but Bärenreiter's editions are among the most attractive I know of. Unfortunately, I don't think I have any Bärenreiter editions around to check at the moment.
Please supply scans of hand engraved editions.
I'll see what I have available. Meanwhile, would it be too much trouble to ask for a scan of your reference edition?
Best, Marnen
