Have what?
Werner was referring to the small white triangles
when he said "bad typography". Of the five examples
you've submitted, only the Grieg and the Pierné
have that problem.
If different stem lengths for the same note bothers
you, realize that the complexities of typesetting
beams demand that stem lengths vary, often greatly.
See the attached png for an example.
What is bad about the Mozart, Debussy and Bizet
examples? They look okay to me.
One more thing:

We do.

It's similar to book printing: The tradition in engraving accumulated over more than 100 years *defines* good music typography -- we got accustomed to it, and we even expect it. From this point of view, your Eulenburg example is badly engraved. And handling plate printing dilemmas correctly will bring us a step nearer to well looking scores.

Re: Stem lenghts
Not really. The problem with this sample is that this Eulenburg edition is far too small to really show high typography. While it leads the eye well, it exhibits far too much other typographical defects, for example the second and last beam, both presenting those small white triangles which should *never* be present in former times since they can be flooded with ink as soon as the printing plate gets used a bit. If you want to show us good typography please refer to a large score for a piano solo piece, say. I don't feel that it is important to consider the plate printing dilemmas in computer output. My intention was to show the repeated notes, only the stem lenghts, not to imply that the example is extraordinary typography. I can see that the stems are the same lenght when the notes are repeated. But then again I got my new glasses last week. ___ bug-lilypond mailing list bug-lilypond@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-lilypond
