It's probably me. I've looked in the archives and haven't found any mention of this problem, but when I compile the sample text given when you first run lilypond (that single scale of quarternotes), I can view the resulting pdf file using adobe acrobat without problems. But when I use GS View to

Heyla! It's been a long time, but I'm back to trying to use lilypond again. A lot of things have changed, my old pieces not being among them. This is because I can't figure out how to run convert-ly on them. This is the windows-native version of lilypond, auto-installed. I have looked in the manua

Ahh. Thanks. Although that didn't answer my question, because I didn't ask it very well. c:3.6 is, hands down, the way to do it. I was following the process in the manual, though, so I was defining the chorus (as chorus, how original) and using it in the score block as \chorus in both the Voice
