emergencystretch kicks only in in situations where TeX would otherwise give up. It then pretend-adds the given additional stretchability, and rebreaks the paragraph under that changed assumption (with an emergencystretch of 0.9\hsize, TeX is fine with 90% of the line consisting of stretched spaces). @finalout merely switches off the big black rule displayed at lines not being breakable under the given parameters, but does not change the breaking: it just does not mark the lines sticking out. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
