Yes. The default templates that come with OOoLilyPond automatically insert everything you type into a \score block, which causes problems if you are doing more than a little snippet. Use the following as an outline to create your own template and make it your default. You will now have to include a \score { } block in your OOoLiliPond snippet, but it gives you much more flexibility. NOTE: This template is for doing church bulletins or 8-/12x11 folded booklets. Set the paper size and margins to your preferences. \version "2.11.15" \include "lilypond-book-preamble.ly" \paper { #(define dump-extents #t) #(set-paper-size "letter") paper-height = 8.5\in paper-width = 5.5\in top-margin = 0.25\in bottom-margin = 0.35\in left-margin = 0.25\in line-width = 4.75\in % between-system-padding = 0.5\in % between-system-space = 0.25\in ragged-last = ##f ragged-bottom = ##t ragged-right = ##f % system-count = #1 % print-first-page-number = ##f % print-page-number = ##t oddFooterMarkup = \markup { \fill-line { \hspace #0 { \bold \fromproperty #'page:page-number-string } } } evenFooterMarkup = \markup { \fill-line { { \bold \fromproperty #'page:page-number-string } \hspace #0 } } oddHeaderMarkup = \markup { \fill-line { \hspace #0 { "" } } } evenHeaderMarkup = \markup { \fill-line { { "" } \hspace #0 } } } global = { #(set-global-staff-size 14) \override Staff.VerticalAxisGroup #'minimum-Y-extent = #'(-0.5 . 0.5) % \override Lyrics.LyricText #'font-size = #0.0 % \override Lyrics.LyricText #'word-space = #0.6 % \override Lyrics.LyricSpace #'minimum-distance = #1.0 }
% ly snippet contents follows: c' d' e' % end ly snippet _____ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of PabloZum Sent: Tuesday, July 17, 2007 4:24 PM To: lilypond-user@gnu.org Subject: ooolilypond user OooLilyPond seems to be EXACTLY what I was looking for to write a book on jazz improvisation. I use Window XP and I can get it to insert simple scores in OpenOffice.org such as: \key c \minor \relative c'' { c16 es, d es c es d es c' es, d es c es d es } which is the test given in the sourceforge webpage. However, other scores that are created in LilyPond without problems, such as this one given in the LilyPond tutorial: \version "2.10.10" melody = \relative c' { \clef treble \key c \major \time 4/4 a b c d } text = \lyricmode { Aaa Bee Cee Dee } harmonies = \chordmode { a2 c2 } \score { << \new ChordNames { \set chordChanges = ##t \harmonies } \new Voice = "one" { \autoBeamOff \melody } \new Lyrics \lyricsto "one" \text >> \layout { } \midi { } } get quite a lot of "syntax error"s and "unknown escaped string"s and "unexpected string"s. Does OooLilyPond have a shorter scope than LilyPond? I've tried running both "lilypond.exe" and "lilipon-window.exe" as the executable on "config", with the same results. Thank you!
