Easiest to save both files in the same folder (directory). If you have a lot of files in separate folders, you can put your preferences in a separate folder, but you need to add a search path to the default LilyPond arguments.
On Windows, it might be something like this:
--include=C:/Documents and Settings/Mark/My Documents/lilypond/preferences/
As an example - the preferences file here
colors noteheads red. The \layout blocks
"cascade", so even though the \layout block
in the preferences file is outside of the
\score blocks, it still works as if it were
inside of them.
Hope this helps.
