Sounds to me like GhostScript is keeping statistics about the character orientations and the most frequent orientation ends up as that of the paper (maybe it's only a drawing optimization that unintentionally bleeds into the result?). So I suspect that the other page material (tagline?) makes up for something around 50 characters. Music engraving by LilyPond 2.17.28—www.lilypond.org 52 characters, minus 4 spaces. Whoever thought the tagline was important? -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ bug-lilypond mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-lilypond
