I narrowed the problem down to lilypond-book-preamble.ly lilypond -dbackend eps lilypond-book-preamble.ly GNU LilyPond 2.11.20 ERROR: In procedure symbol->string ERROR: Wrong type argument in position 1 (expecting symbol): #t
I haven't made any changes, but here is the contents of lilypond-book-preamble.ly ... maybe someone on the list can find the bug. The only thing I could do would be comment out each line one at a time, but I still wouldn't know what the correct syntax should be. \version "2.10.0" %% toplevel \book gets output per page, %% everything else gets output per system/title #(define default-toplevel-book-handler print-book-with-defaults-as-systems ) #(define toplevel-book-handler (lambda ( . rest) (set! output-empty-score-list #f) (apply print-book-with-defaults rest))) #(define toplevel-music-handler (lambda ( . rest) (apply collect-music-for-book rest))) #(define toplevel-score-handler (lambda ( . rest) (apply collect-scores-for-book rest))) #(define toplevel-text-handler (lambda ( . rest) (apply collect-scores-for-book rest))) #(set! output-empty-score-list #t) #(ly:set-option (quote no-point-and-click)) #(define inside-lilypond-book #t) #(define version-seen #t) ________________________________ From: Paul Harouff [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, March 05, 2007 2:07 PM To: Graham Percival Cc: lilypond-user@gnu.org Subject: Re: -b eps option (was RE: OOolilypond and openoffice 2.1) Thanks, Graham. I failed to mention that the -dbackend=eps option works outside of OOo. I verified that before making the changes to Subs.xba. I think this is some other script error inside OOoLilypond passing a bad value to Lilypond, but I don't have a clue from the LilyPond error message where to look. Even thinking about using LaTeX and LilyPondBook gives me chills. And while LilyPond is great at handling musical notation, it is horrible at handling text outside of a score (which is completely understandable - because that's not what it's designed for). OOoLilypond looks like it could be a real production tool for laying out hymnbooks and worship services, etc., by combining the strengths of LilyPond and OOoWriter. I'm really excited to see if I can get it working and try it out.

Then I deleted the macro in OOo and reinstalled it, so it would load the changes.
