Thanks to those who responded regarding my 'potential error'. I realised the 's'
shortly after I sent the email! The problem is not in Lilypond but in NoteEdit - I've
discovered. In Lilypond the code goes:
Staff { \notes {blah blah blah }}
Lyrics {blah blah blah}
\score {
\simultaneous {
\addlyrics
\property Staff.skipbars = ##t
\context Staff="StaffA" \StaffA
\context Lyrics="StaffAText \ StaffAText
}
\paper {
linewidth = 160.00 \mm
textheight = 230.00 \mm
}
}
When I tried putting the '\translator { \StaffContext minimumVerticalExtent' under the
\paper, I got an error - the unexpected SCM thingy and I got the same when I tried to
specify the minimumVertical Extent under \score as \context
Staff.minimumVerticalExtent.
Could the \simultaneous be causing the problem?
Also ... when I specify the linewidth and textheight, run the .ly and generate the
.ps, then look at it in gv - often it will be on one page (most of my stuff is like
that). When I go to print it, I will lose the copyright across the bottom. Further,
on some pages which have textheight = 240.00 \mm it works, while others with it as
230.00 \mm it chopped it off - yet in both cases, Ghostview showed it to be on 1 page
- complete and perfect the way I want it. I tried ps2pdf and although these look
fine, they too will print out inconsistently. Is this a problem through Lilypond? the
printer driver? Ghostview? If it's a simple margin thingy, just TELL me so, and I'll
work within it - just end this guessing!!
Thanks to all, you've been most helpful, and patient!
Suzanne
