I can’t speak for the music publishing industry, but having worked in textual publishing: *if* your LilyPond PDF were exactly according to house standards, they would probably publish it, but the odds of you, the composer or arranger, producing a PDF exactly according to house standards are infinitesimal. And even if *you* could do it, the amount of effort it would take the house to evaluate your competence to do so is more than it would take for them to do it themselves. In their shoes, I would rather take your PDF and reënter it from scratch in my tool of choice. ~Chris -- Chris Maden, text nerd <URL: http://crism.maden.org/ > Those who learn from history are doomed to become cynics. _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
