Re: small phrase to small png
Why not use the --png flag of lilypond? lilypond --preview --png myfile.ly However, if you are not happy with the resolution of the PNG file, then you can follow Stan's recommendation and use ps2png -h to learn how to change the resolution. /Mats Stan Mulder wrote: In addition to the other suggestions, if you are on Linux/Unix, after using the --preview command you can convert the eps file to an image with: ps2png Mats Bengtsson wrote: Insert \layout{ raggedright = ##t } in your file if you dont want your notes spread out over the full line width. /Mats Bo Herlin wrote: Yes, but I was hoping for a "shorter" picture of the measure for something as short as { c' d' e' f' } which results in a 627x41 pixel image, when it could be something like 250x41.

building Lilypond 2.4.6 on Ubuntu 4.10 : problem with mftrace option [+ workaround]
Hi, Yesterday I finally managed to build Lilypond 2.4.6. First I could get all the dependancies libs and software through regular repositories (Ubuntu + universe + multiverse) with synaptic, except texinfo (I can have only 4.6, 4.7 required). Since texinfo is for building the manual, I will rely the website, so that's not blocking. I just had to tweak the configure script to change "4.7" to "4.6". On the other hand, during the build process, there was a problem with mftrace. I have a newer version than the one required, and it seems that the "--formats=pfa" is not supported anymore, but "--pfa" instead. So I modified 3 files : GNUmakefile in ./mf, a python script (in ./buildscript, but can't remember which one) an a rule file in ./stepmake. (I think that you might find the file using 'find . -exec grep -il "formats=" {} \;') This solved the problem and I could complete the building process except the user manual (as expected...) and then install it (again it fails when trying to install the manual, but that's ok) PS: I think that my workaround is *very* dirty, but I'm not used to the Autotools, and the project is quite huge, and I just wanted to achieve the process... PS2: by the way, is there an option in the configure or make to skip the building of the user manual ? On the other hand, why not provide a separate package with the user manual ready to use (html/pdf) ? unlike the binary package wich need to be tuned for a distribution, this one would be a "one size fit all".

Everything in the LilyPond files has been updated to correspond to mftrace version 1.1.0 or later, but they have forgot to document this change in INSTALL.txt. So, upgrading to a newer version of mftrace which accepts --formats= is probably a better solution for you. /Mats ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

RE: Default font
Mats - Following your pointers, rummaging and deducing, I've made some progress. Primarily, I'm trying to discover the default text font used in \markup and the same text font to use in embedded PostScript. Purpose is to match rotated text. It seems the default is Roman Upright Medium 10, cmr10.tfm, located at \usr\share\texmf\fonts\tfm\public\cm\ The closest PostScript font seems to be Times-Roman using 2.2 (manual says 1.75) scalefont. It's not the same as cmr10.tfm, but close. Haven't found where it lives. Manual implies cmr10 can be used in the \postscript string, but PostScript names seem to be necessary.

Re: italic lyric help?
To find out, follow the link at the bottom of the section on "Entering Lyrics" to the program reference for LyricText. There, you will find a list of the properties that are set by default. To see a full list of all available properties, you have to follow the links at the bottom of the page to the different interfaces. Since you want to change the font, follow the link to the font-interface. Among others, you will find a property called font-shape that can be set to italic. If you don't know how to do the actual property setting, I recommend you to read the subsections about the \override command. This was the long answer, the short answer is to look through the examples of commands in the section on "Entering Lyrics", which includes exactly the setting you need. /Mats Stan Sanderson wrote: Using Lilypond 2.5.20, Mac OS I am setting a piece with alternate lyrics.

Using Lilypond 2.5.20, Mac OS 10.3.9 Problem: song with 2 versions (not verses) of lyrics (i.e., 2 songs using the same musical setting).

Solution for italic text- alternatetext = \lyricmode { \override LyricText #'font-shape = #'italic \set fontSize = #-1 \set stanza = "1" Let shouts of glad -- ness rise } I would suggest this might be added to the manual, since I found no obvious reference to using \override LyricText #'font-shape = #'italic.
