While following this thread I've copied the various solutions into a growing file. Interstingly with all three proposed solution one after another the final resulting PDF is roted by 90 degree as well.
Commenting out any of the 4 \markup (or note) lines does not rotate the PDF, but with all it does. Why is that so ? Find attached the ly and pdf. Kind regards, Michael -- Michael Gerdau email: m...@qata.de GPG-keys available on request or at public keyserver
