There have been a bunch of discussions lately about lillypond-book
but reading them I can not determine if there is a way to use it in windows or not. I run lilypondtool as setup with easylilypond and them upgraded with the latest lilypond and lilypondtool and I have 5 local songwriters setup this way also. What can I do to to help them compile their music into books? Currently I we are just taking all the song pdfs and seperate pages for the cover and any other pages the author wants.on a jumpdrive to the printers. I've tried \including them like someone suggested here last week, but that method I lost the song titles and other header information. One author writes a variety of songs some are quite short 1 or 2 lines of music and other are more than one page - so she wants to be able to run one song over one page and then put a short song below it on the second page. Or put a drawing below the music on the second page if there are no short songs in that book. I'm guessing for her converting to an image and them cutting and pasting into a dtp program will be the easiest. ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Hi Tim, I've tried \including them like someone suggested here last week, but that method I lost the song titles and other header information. 1. Did you use "print-all-headers = ##t"? 2. Did you try \bookpart? Hope this helps! Kieren. ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

This creates a bit of a problem because the main stave is _already_ within a StaffGroup, so the default barline style of the 'master' subgroup overrides (or overprints, rather...) the dashed barline. Asking to overcome that limitation is probably too much, but I can work around it by rejigging the groupings a bit. However, there is another issue -- 'glyph-name=#":" has a problem that when the staves are not spaced perfectly, there is a big gap between the stave and the beginning of the dots. Is there any other way of getting effective dotted or dashed between-stave barlines? I would have expected 'stencil to be the property to set, but can find no examples ...

Re: Line break and page fit do not work
I found the source of the problem: It wasn't the measure length, it was a problem with forced beams: I wrote: g4 [ < g h,>8 < g h,>8] g4 [ < g h,>8 < g h,>8] in a 4/4 instead of: c4 < g h,>8 [ < g h,>8] g4 < g h,>8 [ < g h,>8] But this syntax error occurred several measures before the measure I suspected to cause the problem.

Re: Line break and page fit do not work
I hope you know that LilyPond will give exactly the same beaming as your forced beaming, in this particular example, and that it often is a better idea to modify the automatic beaming rules than to manually add beams. See the LilyPond Notation Reference for more information. /Mats grisu_76 wrote: I found the source of the problem: It wasn't the measure length, it was a problem with forced beams: I wrote: g4 [ < g h,>8 < g h,>8] g4 [ < g h,>8 < g h,>8] in a 4/4 instead of: c4 < g h,>8 [ < g h,>8] g4 < g h,>8 [ < g h,>8] But this syntax error occurred several measures before the measure I suspected to cause the problem.
