You only need to submit the lily-XXXX.ly file.
I've had the irregularly large measure case myself; in Chompin's Nocturne, one measure is written 'approximately' as the following: <ces ces'>2.(\ff_\markup { \bold \italic "senza tempo" } <bes bes'>)\fermata \acciaccatura { ces16[-3\p\<_\markup { \bold \italic "a tempo" } bes-2 c-4 a]-1 \repeat unfold 7 { ces[ bes c a] } ces[\!\f bes c a] ces[ bes c a] ces[ bes c a] ces[\>\dim bes c a] ces[ bes d\!-5 c] bes[_\markup { \bold \italic "rall." } a-1 aes-4 g] f[_\markup { \bold \italic "smorz." } d-1 ees-3 c-1] #(set-octavation 0) bes'8[-4 aes-3 c,-1 d-3] } | %slur The piece has some errors I have yet to work out; the grace notes here are actually typeset at the end of the measure rather at the beginning of the next measure, in the original piece. I now have a 'copyright renewed 1943' edition which might fix some of the mistakes, but then I don't think it could be on mutopiaproject right? I just need to see if I can determine the fixes based on other similar parts in the music, but I didn't remember seeing much god stuff there. _______________________________________________ Lilypond-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
