Dear Davide, thank you for the answer. that was exactly the problem… I just missed to get myself the solution which is nevertheless very explicit in the manual. It is easy for a newbie to get lost in the complications of Lilypond even in simple matters.
And sorry for being a total newbie also in asking for help :-D I’ll do better in the next time!
