I use Sibelius to "Save as Graphics". This has options for EPS, TIFF, BMP and EMP including "Use smallest bounding box" which gives a file suitable for pasting into a word processor or a DTP package of your choice to be integrated with text etc.

Prior to using Sibelius I used to produce EPS or PDF files (a whole page per tune including white space), import them into a graphics program then crop them before importing into a layout package. Time consuming.
