Dear Mats
Great!
Just to say that indeed it worked pretty fine using :
lilypond-book --output=out --pdf foo.tex
instead of :
lilypond-book --output=out --psfonts foo.tex
My problem as you say, might be due very probably to memory. In fact
my pdf document is up to 90 pages.
using pdf option instead of psfonts is better, and faster, no errors.
Thanx a lot again for your help.

According to another bug report today, the font handling has changed
in recent 2.11.x versions so the generated files are much larger.
This might possibly cause memory problems, as you suspected.
I hope you realize that all the 2.11.x versions are experimental
and that
you should keep to the stable releases 2.10.x for any serious work
(even though this specific bug may be present also in the latest
2.10.x
releases).

Dear Mats
Thanx for the reply
The Lilypond versions are 2.11.12 and 2.11.13
On Macosx PPC mainly
Yesterday i tried with the same version on LinuxX86,
and there the problem is different. it slows the system terribly
and no message of error and takes a lot of time probably hangs.
anyhow i have succeded (on PPC) but in killing the compilation 2
to 3 times.
The motets.tex is my working file , In my example below i
mentionned foo,tex and foo.ly as an example
but it is not the problem with the files (should replace it with
motets (sorry).
I will try pdflatex hoping that it manages the A3 landscape format
and will tell you.

What operating system? What LilyPond version?
In general, I would recommend to use the pdflatex support:
lilypond-book --output=out --pdf foo.tex
cd out
pdflatex foo
What I don't understand in your error printouts is the part about
motets.tex.
First of all, I don't see where the file name comes from but
above all I'm
confused since lilypond-book should only call latex before it starts
running lilypond on the different examples, not after as it looks
here.
If you use lilypond-book --verbose ..., you will get more
information
on what is going on.

Hello
I don't know what is the problem here.
I have a foo.tex file that includes around 18 foo.ly files like
this ;
\chapter{Les Motets}
\cleardoublepage
\lilypondfile[quote,noindent]{orig/1.ly}
\cleardoublepage
\lilypondfile[quote,noindent]{orig/2.ly}
when i do this command line :
lilypond-book --output=out --psfonts foo.tex
i have this error in the terminal :
...
Layout output to `lily-fd8f15de49-6.eps'...
error: unknown error: 1 reading font file: /Applications/
LilyPond.app/Contents/Resources/share/lilypond/current/fonts/
otf//CenturySchL-Ital.otf
command failed: lilypond -b eps -I "/Users/hyperion/Desktop/
motetbook4" --formats=eps -deps-box-padding=3.000000 -dread-
file-list snippet-names
Child returned 1
This is pdfeTeX, Version 3.141592-1.21a-2.2 (Web2C 7.5.4)
entering extended mode
! I can't find file `motets.tex'.
<*> motets.tex
Please type another input file name:
...
this happens on the 6th foo.ly file.
then i kill the process and do it again and the compilation
succeeds.
Now is it a problem with memory ? a font problem but which ?
or a bug or something i am doing wrong?
Thanx
Karim
