Hi Apologies that only half this question is Lilypond, but I'm sure someone in this group will have shared my frustration. I am very tempted to buy a nice wide monitor. I currently play from the screen of my laptop which sits on top of my grand piano. It's a real pain if I have to rotate the screen and the laptop to play from an A4 page at more or less full size. If I got a nice big monitor, the laptop could sit beside the piano and everything would be lovely …
… except … any PDF reader will display 2 pages side by side. On a monitor with a 4:1 aspect ratio, this means that half of it is unused. Despite searching for a week, I haven't found any PDF reader which even thinks that wasting 50% of the display area is a bad idea. Does anyone know of any PDF reader which will display more than 2 pages at once? This is the best solution I have so far thought of. Other suggestions would be very welcome. On the other hand, I spend a huge percentage of my time playing music I've typed into LilyPond. It would be very easy to make a PDF file where pages were 4:1 and landscape. But rather than have a single line of music 80cm long, it would be good to have the page divided into four 20cm panels. Could someone tell me how to ask LilyPond to put music into columns? So far, I've only been able to find out about how to ask LilyPond to put words into columns. Many thanks in advance Paul McKay
