I solved it by defining a custom paper size with no margins. My printer had a margin built into the existing paper size, and Adobe respected that. When I defined a custom paper with a margin of zero, everything came out just like I wanted it to. I hope this will help you.

I use a patched¹ copy of testpage.tex to calibrate the margins imposed by the printer hardware (and its CUPS driver), and a bash function that displays a nonce copy of any PDF file with a corresponding frame superimposed on it, so I know in advance of printing what I'm going to lose around the edges. My Margins-*.ily files take account of this. This test function is essential if you're stuck with US paper sizes. > If I give a score book to a printer, what should I expect? :-) You should discuss how the printer wants your output (presumably as PDF files) delivered to them. Their requirements and flexibilty vary. When I have A6 booklets printed with fairly small margins, I send A4 pages which have pairs of A6 pages in collated order (1,20 19,2 etc) duplicated at the top and bottom of each A4 sheet so that the gutter will be exactly the right size. The printers in Cirencester like that to be done for them. I also send a crib with A6 pages in the correct order, because my booklet's pages are unnumbered. OTOH sending A5 booklet files to my Swindon printer in that form would be a waste of time as the first thing they do is separate each page and then size and place them themselves. The margins in my file are irrelevant to them. One thing you do need to remember to discuss is where any blank pages appear (assuming you don't want to insert "this page intentionally left blank"). There's a tendency for printers to prefer leaving page 2 blank rather than the last page. But there's always lots to discuss in terms of paper quality, weight, brightness, colour etc anyway. Margin size is but a small part. ¹the patch is from http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/139951/pdflatex-testpage-produces-wrong-margins-for-a4paper and I'm not sure about being able to distribute a modified file. However, I document the patch within the printed output, as attached. Cheers, David. ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Hi folks I've tried printing a score with Evince and I see that it adds margins on left, right, top and bottom and scales down the score size to fit it on the page (line-width=17,40 cm). Is it a known issue? lpr prints exactly what I see on the screen (line-width=19 cm).

I could be wrong, but LilyPond also got a bug fixed which innecesarily wrapped barlines into rounded rectangles of zero line width, or something.

As others already pointed out, you have to insert the variables on the correct
spot on the Frescobaldi command line:
frescobaldi --smart --line ${LINENUM} --column ${STARTPOS} ${FILENAME}
will work. The option --smart tells Frescobaldi to translate cursor positions
automatically when you edit the document without running LilyPond again.
(The Okular setting did not need the filename, because it's appended
automagically by Okular.)
> If I try this, Frescobaldi opens and crashes:
> frescobaldi --smart --line %l --column %c +${LINENUM}:${STARTPOS}
> ${FILENAME}
Thanks for telling this :-) It's not a real crash, but Python exiting with an
error message about "invalid integer literal" (happened when line or column
arguments are not numbers). I changed Frescobaldi to ignore invalid
line/column arguments and just start up normally.

Just a shot in the dark, as I don't use those programs: try
frescobaldi --smart --line %l --column %c ${FILENAME}
or
frescobaldi --smart --line ${LINENUM} --column ${STARTPOS} ${FILENAME}

Of course. You are not passing on the file name to frescobaldi (%l is the line
number, %c is the column in okular, but where is the file name???)
> If I use this line instead:
> frescobaldi ${LINENUM}:${STARTPOS} ${FILENAME}
Here you are calling e.g.
frescobaldi 5:3 myfile.ly
of course, frescobaldy understands both arguments as file names, thus the
first file named "5:3" can't be found or opened...
You really need to add the --line and --column and pass ${LINENUM} as argument
of --line and ${STARTPOS} as argument of --column...

The %l is defined only by okular as the shortcut where the line number is
inserted. evince seems to have different shortcuts, so you tell evince to go
the line numbered "%l", which doesn't make sense...
I suppose you rather mean:
frescobaldi --smart --line ${LINENUM} --column %c ${STARTPOS} ${FILENAME}

Reinhold

evince and textedit
Hi,
I'm trying to adapt the configuration explained here:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2007-06/msg00185.html
I'd like to set Frescobaldi as editor, so I've changed the line in the
script as follows (I've copied from the preferences of Okular, where
this works):
frescobaldi --smart --line %l --column %c
but it launches Frescobaldi with an empty file.
If I use this line instead:
frescobaldi ${LINENUM}:${STARTPOS} ${FILENAME}
it launches Frescobaldi, opens the right file (but it does not point
to a specific note (just the beginning of the file)
plus a strange second file which can't be read and looks empty.
If I try this, Frescobaldi opens and crashes:
frescobaldi --smart --line %l --column %c +${LINENUM}:${STARTPOS}
${FILENAME}
Any help?
Thanks,
Federico

First, as far as I know there is no way to set the resolution for PDF or PostScript output. On the other hand, this is because it does not matter for vector drawings (which are used by LilyPond) anyway. IIRC, PDF uses like 32bit resolution on the positioning and size of objects, and this exceeds by far what you're able to distinguish on a printout. If there's a single program on this planet allowing you to get the correct view at a high zoom level from the document, it's up to the printing driver or rendering engine of your viewer. Generally, you only have to bother with resolution settings unless you have any rasterized part in your output (embedded PNG or something). ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

I don't even recall now whether I was using Preview or Acrobat when I printed the big score, but you can see all kinds of fuzzy edges if you look closely.

Printing problem with Evince
I noticed that Evince (I have Fedora 8 with Evince 2.20.2) does a lousy job on printing LilyPond scores. It may do a bad job on other prints as well, but the effect on LilyPond scores is dramatic. See for yourself: http://www.squirrel.nl/pub/xfer/lpev.png . Image left is scanned from a print by Acrobat, the image right is a scan from a print produced by Evince. Both programs printed to the same 600dpi HP Laserjet which involves a Ghostscript filter. This may be a known issue, though I could not find any references to it. -- Johan Chord is alive! http://chordii.sourceforge.net ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
evince (...Re: an output question)

If you know about other evince&lilypond users, please let me know. On latest Ubuntu, sadly this has not been fixed. The issue is a very strange one because: - a command-line lpr of the pdf gives a good output; - kpdf does not show this behaviour, being based on the same rendering engine, namely xpdf (am I wrong?) - thickened barlines are shown both in screen and onto printer. The core developers pointed me that this might be a bug in the form that evince renders the (thin!) rounded rectangles that barlines are made from. -- Francisco Vila.

If you go to <http://www.nabble.com/Gnu---Lilypond---User-f1722.html> and search for 'point and click', there are several threads with more information. I have found the easiest way to get a (fairly) well integrated lilypond environment is by using jEdit and Lilypondtool. This includes a pdf viewer with support for point-and-click, amongst many other features. I does mean that you have to use jEdit instead of another (preferred) editor, of course. -- Nicholas WASTELL France ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

I mentioned it a few weeks ago in this lilypond-user message to which I attached a small image of the anomaly: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2005-07/msg00317.html However, when I print the scores with 3/4 or 5/4 time signatures, the printed copy looks perfect. Therefore I assume it is a problem with how the .pdf files are currently *displayed* by evince and some (but apparently not all) PDF or PostScript viewers, rather than a problem with the underlying .ps or .pdf file itself, or with LilyPond. Please try printing the file, and see if the 3s and 5s in the time signatures are printed correctly. -sd -- Quip: "I'll try being nicer if you'll try being smarter." ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

For the sake of completeness, I set the default version of ghostscript to gs-gpl, ran the file through lilypond again, then viewed the file with all of the pdf viewers that are on my system (which I believe to be all of the pdf viewers available through the standard debian repositories). Acrobat Reader (7.0) looks fine: http://students.washington.edu/josiah/lilypond/threes-acroread.jpg Evince (0.3.0) doesn't show the 3's or 5's in the time signatures: http://students.washington.edu/josiah/lilypond/threes-evince.jpg GGV (Gnome Ghostview 2.8.5) doesn't show anything, for .pdf or .ps, and no error message is shown at the command line: http://students.washington.edu/josiah/lilypond/threes-ggv.jpg GPDF (Gnome PDF Viewer 2.8.2) displays the 3's and 5's, but mangles them: http://students.washington.edu/josiah/lilypond/threes-gpdf.jpg GV (3.6.1) looks fine: http://students.washington.edu/josiah/lilypond/threes-gv.jpg For KGhostview and KPDF, when I used the version switch at the command line, I got not only their versions, but the Qt version (3.3.4) and the KDE version (3.3.2). KGhostview (0.20) looks fine: http://students.washington.edu/josiah/lilypond/threes-kghostview.jpg KPDF (0.3.3) has the same problem as Evince, it doesn't show the 3's or the 5's: http://students.washington.edu/josiah/lilypond/threes-kpdf.jpg GNUStep PDF viewer, ViewPDF (0.9) displays absolutely nothing.

Please file a bug report with evince, then. (?) Looking more carefully I don't know if -- or how to find out if -- it's a problem with Evince, Lilypond, or Ghostscript. Since, in my limited experience with using Evince, I've only had problems looking at Lilypond output, and since I have other problems when using GV, and still yet other problems with acroread, I can only suspect that it's a problem with Lilypond. Unfortunately, I haven't got the faintest idea how to diagnose this further. The problems I've had with acroread may have gone away since the upgrade from 2.4 to 2.6. The problems that I've had with GV seem to be when the /etc/alternatives (I think this is Debian specific, but I don't know) settings have me viewing files with gs-esp, but I don't have them when using gs-afpl or gs-gpl. I have gs-afpl (8.14), gs-esp (8.15) and gs-gpl (8.15) all installed. I've probably just mentioned a new problem that deserves a separate look, but the case remains that I can't determine what link of the chain is faulty: Evince, Lilypond, or Ghostscript.

evince doesn't display 3's
Using the 2.6.0 autopackage on Debian sarge/sid, Evince (v. 0.3.0)
doesn't display the 3's in the time signatures.
An example .ly file:
\version "2.6.0"
\score {
\relative c' {
\time 3/4 d2.
\time 7/8 e2..
\time 2/4 f2
\time 3/8 es4.
\time 5/8 ges4 f4.
\time 4/8 e2
\time 3/2 d1.
}
}
