-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Poking around my system today, I noticed two interesting things about the PDFs generated by LilyPond.
1) There is no metadata associated with the PDF. Well, the producer and creator are set to the appropriate software. However, when a top-level title is available (for a book or a score), it would be cool to embed that in the PDF. 2) Conversely, the editing URIs embedded in the PDF represent a security risk. If I share a PDF created with LilyPond, full absolute file paths from my computer are exposed. Admittedly, this is a very, very small risk, but it is still one to consider. I could not find a command-line option to disable this; an option to make the paths relative would also be useful, I think. I realize that strictly, LilyPond generates PostScript, and that GhostScript then handles the conversion to PDF; however, this is information that could be changed in the PostScript as intended for passing through that conversion. Does anyone else have thoughts about this? ~Chris - -- Chris Maden, text nerd <URL: http://crism.maden.org/ > LIVE FREE: vote for Gary Johnson, Libertarian for President. <URL: http://garyjohnson2012.com/ > <URL: http://lp.org/ > GnuPG fingerprint: DB08 CF6C 2583 7F55 3BE9 A210 4A51 DBAC 5C5C 3D5E -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://www.enigmail.net/ iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJQR5kHAAoJEEpR26xcXD1eDqcH/RWr5uDOdx6lDoYa57FyuHZ+ J1Cj4b6J2piIdOOEUPeEds5ZDbCY6HDb984pPIMP7Dt52w9fbXHWk8FBFyncDErC omjf2qZX48xMjvRxU08LZI+nkf067PjIwZC6ndwavWLQgrj587vTEPY27c+3OFum IvKXeKlpXBEhYHtdTtNPqB0/Wm/05Y9fgaZ3KJXuATHD/Bz/VJ1JhOYTHmMU4m3D CgJK6/vi2gpSwvSKwAGhHTJAxXbZvr5UvGg7VmoRkmy0NweEeu7DS0uOq7HALR+Y BhCC1nuJVtMO9TAG5JUpspDBlGWVzPZeLwCEY4dd+h3NUu6dDBd48uTbbgyQm9g= =NDq7 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
