Re: Tabloid paper size - how I got it working
LilyPond calls the program ps2pdf, which in its turn calls gs, so
in your case it runs version 8.15.
An alternative to hacking in the Ghostscript installation is to
take the PS file generated by LilyPond and manually convert it
into PDF using
ps2pdf -sPAPERSIZE=11x17 strtrio-vln.ps
We should probably add a table lookup in LilyPond so it the LilyPond
paper size name is translated into the corresponding Ghostscript paper
size name before calling ps2pdf.

I was getting ready to write this list asking if anyone had had luck
generating tabloid (11x17) PS/PDFs from Lilypond, but in the process, I
figured out how to do it.
Since I'm not sure exactly what it was I did that made it work, and since
I have three versions of Ghostscript (7.07, 8.15, and 8.50) installed, not
sure which one Lilypond is using, I thought I'd post my experiences here
so they might be useful to someone who's trying to format tabloid scores
or to the developers.
I'm running Fedora Core 3, and have gotten two versions of Lilypond
successfully installed and working from RPMs: first, 2.4.2; currently,
2.5.3.
With both versions of Lilypond, I tried specifying the paper size
according to the documentation, which worked fine for letter and legal
sized paper, at both portrait (default) and landscape orientations:
#(set-default-paper-size "letter" 'landscape)
But while those sizes/orientations worked fine, specifying tabloid (with
or without the 'landscape option) generated an error something like this:
Layout output to `strtrio-vln.ps'...
Converting to `strtrio-vln.pdf'...Error invoking `ps2pdf
-sPAPERSIZE="tabloid" strtrio-vln.ps > /dev/null 2>&1 '. Return value
65280
Although it looks like the PS file was generated, and the problem occured
in converting it to PDF, actually the PS file would appear to be somewhat
messed up - KGhostView would open it, but show a letter-size page with
(overflowing) tabloid music, while GGV wouldn't open it at all, saying
"File is not a valid PostScript document."
The PDF, meanwhile, was not generated at all.
But then I typed "info ghostscript" (which says its based on version
7.07), and I came across the following information on paper sizes:
=== begin quote ===
To select a specific paper size, use the command line switch
-sPAPERSIZE=a_known_paper_size
for instance
-sPAPERSIZE=a4
or
-sPAPERSIZE=legal

file "gs_statd.ps", are:

Note that there is no "tabloid", only "11x17" (i.e. "tabloid" 'portrait)
and ledger (i.e. "tabloid" 'landscape). But I can't specify 11x17 or
ledger in Lilypond, because it doesn't recognize this.
So I tried searching for that "gs_statd.ps" mentioned in the above info
document, to see if maybe I could customize it. Doing:
find / -name gs_statd.ps
I found three copies, one corresponding to each version of ghostscript I
have installed (only the first, 7.07, from an RPM):
/usr/share/ghostscript/7.07/lib/gs_statd.ps
/usr/local/share/ghostscript/8.15/lib/gs_statd.ps
/usr/local/share/ghostscript/8.50/lib/gs_statd.ps
Editing each file in turn, I found a line (around line 41) like:
/11x17 {792 1224 //.setpagesize exec} bind def %
Re: Textcircled again
It certainly works, but the problem is that LilyPond thinks that
the instrument name is extremely long, so it places it too far to the
left. Try
\layout{ indent=5\cm }
to see where it actually ends up.
The only workaround I could come up with for the moment, is to add
something like
\once \override Staff.InstrumentName #'X-extent = #'(0 . 10)

This still shifts the circled number outside the paper, the following
"= fis" is placed just on the edge.

Re: Problem with finding fonts in lilypond
I would definitely recommend you to install the latest stable version, version 2.4.x, of LilyPond instead of the development version you have now. I've never user Gentoo, but on most other Linux distributions, the LilyPond installation installs a file in /etc/profile.d/ that sets some environment variables that are needed for LilyPond to find font files and some other files. This file isn't sourced until you start a new shell (or maybe you even have to logout and login again), so if you use a shell that was open before the installation, LilyPond will not work. /Mats Tazz wrote: Hello, I just installed lilypond 2.5.2 on my computer.

Just as Graham, I don't really know anything about texniccentre, but I'm sure that when you ask it to process a document, it will save a file and then process the file using the program called latex. I guess that you run in Windows and currently use MikTeX. You cannot use lilypond-book together with MikTeX, but the cygwin system contains the teTeX system, which is just as capable as MikTeX (just make sure to rerun setup.exe and install the packages 'tetex-base' and 'tetex-extra'). So, if you want to use lilypond-book together with texniccentre, you should - Find a way to insert the lilypond code into the document. I'm sure there's a way to insert arbitrary LaTeX code into the document, so that shouldn't be a problem. - Instead of letting texniccentre run latex, you have to take the file saved by texniccentre and call first lilypond-book and then latex from within the Cygwin command window (as described in the LilyPond manual). It would probably be very easy for a hacker to automate this process, so you could do these steps also from within texniccentre, but to start with, you could do it manually. In the second step, make sure to change directory to the directory where texniccentre saved the file.

Installation Redhat 8, dependencies
Perhaps someone could give me some pointers. I have not successfully installed LilyPond as of yet. I tried with the command-line: rpm -i lilypond-2.4.1-1.rh90.ccrma Althought the package name contains "rh90", it is the one recommended for RH8 on the LilyPond website. This is the chain of dependency errors I get as I try to install the successive packages that are required: guile >= 1.6.4-8 is needed by lilypond-2.4.1-1.rh90.ccrma libpthread.so.0(GLIBC_2.3.2) is needed by guile-1.6.4-8 glibc-common = 2.3.2-98 is needed by glibc-2.3.2-98 glibc < 2.3.2 conflicts with glibc-common-2.3.2-101 I can't uninstall glibc because it is required by too many packages. I can't upgrade glibc because I don't have the right version of glibc-common and I can't upgrade glibc-common because I don't have the right version of glibc. So I tried to install from source. First I installed guile from source (guile-1.6.7.tar.gz). Then I installed flex from source (flex-2.5.4a.tar.gz). Then I unpacked lilypond-2.4.4.tar.gz When I ./configure from ./lilypond-2.4.4 I get the following error: ERROR: Please install required programs: echo no guile-config >= 1.6 (installed: ) libguile (libguile-dev, guile-devel or guile-dev package). I then tried to find libguile-dev. The LilyPond website installation instructions say this might be needed but does not supply a link. I searched for it but I have only found it in .deb package format. I don't know how to install a .deb package on RedHat. Next I obtained and unpacked guile-devel. It directly installed files in usr/include/libguile/ so I assume that no make install is needed. I tried ./configure from ./lilypond-2.4.4 again but got the same error: ERROR: Please install required programs: echo no guile-config >= 1.6 (installed: ) libguile (libguile-dev, guile-devel or guile-dev package).

My current solution is massively wordy, requires replacing \s with \r and making the latter invisible, and must be applied to each group, of which I have hundreds including two-voice polyphony: a16 [\set stemLeftBeamCount = #1 \set stemRightBeamCount = #1 r g] s a[ stemRightBeamCount = #1 g \set stemLeftBeamCount = #1 \set stemRightBeamCount = #1 r g] Do you have a better, more global solution? Thanks. Qian Li '05 ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Lilypond 4 rpm problems
I'm having a hell of a time installing v.4. I'm being plagued with one dependency issue after another (I'm running Mandrake Linux 9.2). Has anyone else encountered this? I hit the ultimate roadblock while trying to install libMagick5. No matter where I obtain the rpm the install fails.

Grace notes, ties, optimum notation
I have recently begun to learn LilyPond, which is an exceptionally nice program, though I have a tremendous amount to learn about it. I would like to ask if anyone might have a suggestion how better to notate the last measure of the piano piece linked to below (it is a screen capture of LilyPond's PDF output of the piece). The last chord of the piece is arpeggiated, but not in exact sequence of notes from bottom to top: one note (the F second to top) is out of order. Link to .png image of .pdf output of lilypond: http://www.xscd.com/pics/lilypond-example.PNG Thank you, and best wishes, Steve D, New Mexico US P.S. Should I have attached the .png image instead, for the sake of the archives? ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
