Here is the response I get from Terminal:
lilypond test.ly
lilypond (GNU LilyPond) 2.2.5
Please use LilyPond 2.4 or above -- I highly recommend 2.8. If for
some reason you must use lily 2.2.5, please read the manual for that
I have not yet been able to get LilyPond to work. For even the test
file, I get: parser error. braces don't match. This happens even though
I have directly cut and pasted from .ly files available on your web
site. I have tried numerous ways of adjusting the curly braces, but
still can't get it
Which gets us to the crux of the problem. Finale and lilypond use all of the
nuances of postscript that they possibly can..perhaps even using parts of it
that the PDF "subset" does not support very well. For this reason, all the
PDF viewers I have tried look like crap. Sad.

My best proposal is to typeset the ChordNames below thelyrics. When there is lyrics, you move the ChordNames up
and the lyrics down (I would have used the extra-offsetproperty, but it seems that you have found another option).I found another option, yes, but it did not work (Y-offset that is)But th

Hi, Erik:

Usually you can shrink problematic examples down to <5 lines of code

Now what? ;-)
Seriously... I prefer bug demos which include WORKING examples as

Well ,for whatever its worth... I can produce fine looking PDF's with

I'm trying to typeset a SATB piece, with chords for pianoThe problem: the sopranos partially have their own lyrics (three verses, so it takes a lot of room)
If I put the ChordNames above the lyrics, the placement of the chords looks rather stupid where the sopranos sing the same as the rest,

Hello, all --
I've got a weird issue (v2.8) that I can't track down -- any hints
would be appreciated.
I've got piano with centred dynamics and pedal, as given by the tip/
example in the docs:
\new PianoStaff = "piano"
<<
\new Staff = "pfUpper"

The most important thing is the printed output, though, so I've never
really looked into this issue.
there are some PS commands to introduce hinting for line-art, but I've
never bothered to investigate if it might help with this.

Hello,
I've noticed that Adobe Reader 7.0.7 shows head and stem of a quarter
note as two separate items - a small notch at the point where the
stem is attached to the head. As the notch stays the same size on the
screen, even when zooming in to 6400%, I doubt it is really there. I
have yet to
You can also play with the settings in Acrobat. There's usually some
settings related to anti-alias or so.

If you're using Acrobat viewer, then this is your PDF viewer. Onscreen, it

resolution at which it displays the image. But try printing the document
out; everything will look fine. You just have to learn to take Acrobat's

Actually, the manuals for 2.8 and 2.9 are (almost) identical for the
moment.
