Leadsheet - trying to fill page without leaving empty space

Oh Wise Ones, I use Lilypond to produce jazz leadsheets for concert, Bb and Eb instruments, and find I often have to tweak parts to get them to fit on to a single A4 page. Alto sax parts tend to need a bit more compression because they tend to have more ledger lines at the top of the staff. I

Hi Robert and Simon, I posted a code example here of how to recast the Larsen library as articulations, not markup. You can take it from there and convert the whole lot the same way. Andrew On 19 April 2018 at 08:25, Simon Albrecht wrote: > On 18.04.2018 18:38, Robert Hickman wrote: > >> Trie

Is it possible to create a local context around just the text to move them up individually and 'fake it'? I only need these secondary annotations in this example so it woulden't be a problem overall. I don't want to resort to hand editing the image if I can at all avoid it. For instance if screen

Tried using "\override TextScript.staff-padding" to move the text annotations in the attached image up but it also moves the Larson articulation symbols up as well. I want these to stay in the same place and the text to move up a bit away from them. Is lilypond treating the articulation symbols as

I am going to miss Graham, too. The effort he has put into LilyPond has been substantial and the results have been both extensive and excellent. Thank you, Graham. I'm currently doing some work on the documents, and will continue to do so. It's possible I may be able to shift my emphasis (duties?)

Some users may have read the emails "Leaving: replacements" and and thought "gee, I wish I could help, but ``I don't know enough''". I would like to debunk this myth. I don't know enough, either! Neither did I when I began.
