Nope, Lilypond doesn't try to be a full text layout application. You cannot do multi-column text with automatic line- and column-breaking. I am using Latex for such things like preface, lyrics and translations (Initially I tried to use lilypond, that's why I wrote that other snippet that Harm suggested; But then decided that lilypond simply isn't capable of what I need), critical report, etc. Cheers, Reinhold -- ------------------------------------------------------------------ Reinhold Kainhofer, Vienna University of Technology, Austria email: reinh...@kainhofer.com, http://reinhold.kainhofer.com/ * Financial and Actuarial Mathematics, TU Wien, http://www.fam.tuwien.ac.at/ * Edition Kainhofer Music Publishing, http://www.edition-kainhofer.com/ * LilyPond music typesetting software, http://www.lilypond.org/ _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
