Assigning lyrics to stanzas without using \lyricsto

Hello, I'm trying to write some lyrics to a chorus and two stanzas, explicitly specifying the duration of each syllable (see sample file at the end). While trying to assign each of the stanza lyrics to the music, I find myself on this situation: · If I use \lyricsto, the specified durations are ig

Thin bars

Hello, Simply put, I find the default bars in lilypond too thick - whether they be the bars automatically put between beats, or the ones inserted by using \bar "something". Is there any way to make them thinner? -- $0='!/msfQ0yjoV!fe!sfldbi!psup!pmpT'x19xor print+map{("\e[7m \e[0m", chr ord(chop$

Re: Thin bars

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

Staves closer to one another

Hello, me again. Is there a way to get the staves in lilypond to appear closer together? The default separation seems excessive to me. Also, since some of the staves I'm working with have lyrics (two stanzas, one on top of the other), I would like to know if it's possible to get the first stanza c

Consistent page layout

Hello. I've created a score using Lilypond 2.12.2 (source code is at the end). Unfortunately there are two things which I haven't been able to fix: 1- The text "Da capo al Fine", which appears right at the end - or at least should, is displayed as "Da capo al Fin". This, of course, is because the

Three systems per page

Hello. This is (almost) the final version of the score I was recently working on and which I posted on this list a while ago. However, I still have one doubt: is it possible, perhaps by reducing the spacing or the size of the symbols, to fit three systems per page? Even though the systems are even
