I am looking for a software for preparing nice (publication) pictures of sequence alignment.
I was thinking more about the sequence editor.
The sequence editor in Geneious is very pleasing on the eye. From there you could take a screenshot of your area of interest.
just use Jalview I would show it with a simple diagram like this if you dont want to show columns of sequences
JalView is good software, and will probably do what you want. If you want a bit more control over the output, I wrote some software that does just what you're talking about. It was used and described here: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/26263196 and is available in the 'align' module of my 'molecbio' Python package here: https://github.com/dave-the-scientist/molecbio. It does require some python coding to use, so if you're not comfortable with that then I'd second the advice to use Jalview.
For simple alignment visulisation, BioEdit should do the job well. http://www.mbio.ncsu.edu/bioedit/bioedit.html
