Mats - You have added a new dimension to my LilyPond education. Embedded PostScript is a solution for several enhancements to sheets previously left unenhanced.
A very useful PostScript guide: http://www.cs.indiana.edu/docproject/programming/postscript/postscript.html. Thanks for your help. - Bruce -----Original Message----- From: Mats Bengtsson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, April 08, 2005 3:00 AM To: Fairchild Cc: bug-lilypond@gnu.org Subject: Re: Glyph "flags-stem" Missing I would actually recommend embedded postscript. Look at the example embedded-postscript.ly <http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.4/input/test/out-www/lily-1795817312.ly> in the Tips and Tricks document. You can also find some examples in the mailing list archives. /Mats Fairchild wrote: >Mats - > >The goal is to cater to the flair Adam used at the end of his >manuscripts.
