Subject: Re: Lilypond and eBooks
Like Bart, I'll be using calibre for creating the actual eBook. This
eBook will be for internal use and need only be compatible with
Kindles, as that's all I expect it to be displayed on.
It seems to me that you don't create an eBook with calibre, but rather
use it to convert something you have created to eBook format. What
program will you use to actually write the text and import the images?
I put a few lilypond scores on my ereader (Kobo Aura HD) in PDF format
to see if it was viable. I set the page size to A5; set all margins to
zero (as the reader puts it's own margin on the screen); removed all
page numbering, as the reader numbers the pages for me; and played with
the staff size until I got good looking pages. The scores are readable
and I can play from them, though I have to sit pretty close to the music
stand, but until an ereader comes along that allows one to scribble
annotations and changes directly onto the screen, it's not really a
viable medium for scores. A larger screen wouldn't hurt, either.
