**Subject: Issues with Embedding Long LilyPond Scores in LaTeX**

Dear LilyPond Users,

I’ve encountered an issue when embedding a long LilyPond file into a LaTeX
document. My goal is to include a lengthy musical score within the text,
but the current method results in the entire score being rendered as a
single tall image. This image often exceeds the page length, making it
spill over the page, which is not ideal.

Here is the basic LaTeX code I'm using:

```latex
\lilypondfile{a_lengthy_musical_score_example.ly}
```

### Problem:
When the LilyPond file contains a long score, it is inserted as one large,
vertical image, which surpasses the page's display limits. What I would
like is for the score to dynamically break across pages, similar to how
text flows naturally in LaTeX.

### Question:
Is there a way to embed long LilyPond scores in LaTeX such that they
automatically break across pages? If so, what’s the best practice for
handling this within the LaTeX and LilyPond integration?

Thank you for any advice or suggestions!

Best regards,
Peter
