Hi all! I'm a new Lilypond user and I've some very simple questions for you.
1) Titles -- I have: tagline= "copyright©2004"
Why in the .pdf '©' is only a 'c' (there's no circle)? This don't works
with
'®' too.
It works fine here. I hope you use a text editor that saves the file in latin1 encoding (also called ISO 8859-1).
Eheh...you hope but I don't know! :) Seriously, I used NotePad (win98) but I haven't options, I can only choose the font. In these days I'm tryin' Vim but I don't save the file as 'latin1', I save it 'as *.ly'....am I wrong? I use the dafault font (Fixedsys). I also have different files type from menu/syntax but there aren't 'latin1' or 'Lilypond'. Except for the '©' and '®', to me it seems that all works good (using 'save as *.ly).
At least in NotePad for WindowsXP, there is an option in the Save As window, where you can choose Encoding: ANSI (which is exactly what you want). I don't remember if you have the same option in Win98. The encoding just specifies how the different characters are saved in the file. For the ordinary letters of the English language, more or less all computers agree, but for more uncommon characters like © or a*, there are many different standards.
As an alternative, you can use the LaTeX command tagline= "copyright\\copyright{}2004"
I wrote this in the 'header' but don't works.
What do you mean by "doesn't work"? This should definitely work. Do you get error messages from lilypond? If not, what do you get in the PDF file?
2) Tablature -- if I've a chord (ex. {<<d a d'>>} ), in the .pdf there is a line cross
the
numbers, why? And...is it possible to choose line-up or line-down (from
the
number)?
I leave tablature questions to others.
No problem! I just add that it seems that '\stemUp' and '\stemDown' don't work in tablature (as fingerings like 'c-2').
I've never used tablature, but it seems to me that the stem typesetting should be done exactly as for normal music, so I don't really understand why it doesn't work.
