No one has mentioned Nicholas Sceaux's book titling include file in this thread, can it be that it is not well-known? I built it in to Denemo a while back, with some modifications of my own (mainly to provide a border around the page).
http://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=denemo.git;a=blob_plain;f=actions/lilypond/book-titling.ily;hb=HEAD is the original include file that makes not only a title page but also table of contents available. A thumbnail of the sort of title page attainable is here: http://imslp.org/wiki/File:PMLP53412-SoloV-Default_Score_Layout.pdf Richard On Wed, 2014-03-26 at 17:31 -0500, Joshua Nichols wrote: > I am curious overall on what might be a useful enhancement: > > > Has anyone thought about writing a permanent title page feature for > lilypond?
