The pdftex option is still very experimental and is not always updated when lilypond changes. Use 'ly2dvi -p' to get a PDF file.

Hello,
I am quite new to lilypond, but as far as I explored it, I like it. But now I have a problem. I took the source code from the lilypond tutorial
------------------- CODE ------------------- \score { \notes { \time 3/4 \clef bass c2 e4 g2. f4 e d c2. } \paper { } } ------------------- CODE -------------------
saved it to "t.ly" and invoked "ly2dvi --pdftex t.ly". And this is what it said:
------------------- Output -------------------
Running LilyPond...
GNU LilyPond 1.6.9
Now processing: `t.ly'
Verarbeite...

Verarbeite Element vor... Berechne Position der Spalten... [3][5]
paper output to `t.pdftex'...
Analyzing t.pdftex... Running LaTeX... ly2dvi:Fehler: LaTeX failed on the output file.
ly2dvi:Fehler: The error log is as follows:

I suspect you have forgotten a `}', causing me
to read past where you wante
Traceback (most recent call last):

LaTeX error
------------------- Output -------------------
I have read that the pdftex option is still under development or isn't it working at all? Or is it a problem on my side? The normal ly2dvi works fine. I also can do a "ly2dvi -k t.ly" and a "pdflatex t.latex" from the ly2dvi directory and get a good looking pdf file.
Hope you can help.
