Well, I just tried printing the document with Adobe Reader under WinXP. At least the bars have just the right length, but they still look too thick. Even if I still used Evince, I could take care of that if there were any way to hand-tune the length and thickness of the bars. How do I do that? 200

These links show already filed bugs on the issue. I am completely sure that I myself filed a bug on poppler or libpoppler regarding to the lilypond barlines, but I cannot find the URL despite of having been searching for half an hour now. Poppler is the PDF rendering library of evince, if I'm not

Well, I just tried printing it, and the bars look even worse - not only are they too thick, they also seem to be a bit too long, so that they go beyond the limits of the staff on both sides (not sure if I'm making myself clear on that one). Is there any way to change that? 2009/1/16 Mats Bengtsson
