Dear Ed, thanks for this suggestion. I shall try. However, if this discussion is to be relevant for current users, I probably have some catchup to do. Since yesterday, I have realized that my version of LilyPond was "old" (relatively speaking) because I had installed LilyPond (version 2.16.0)

Jean-Luc, I like your method of drag-and-drop onto batch files: it's a very easy way to run lilypond in a Windows environment. It looks to me like the command "-dbackend=eps" was mainly intended for lilypond-book (http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.18/Documentation/usage/lilypond_002dbook) and hence

Hello Phil, thanks for your suggestions. I'll make good use of them. I do not feel like I have full control when using MY "method of drag-and-drop onto batch files" because it generates an incredible number of intermediary files, which I have to clean by hand ;-) However, it is indeed flexi
