Re: Piano + two verses?
Nick, I had some time today, so I took a look at your file. I used the example in the documents and pasted your notes onto there. When aligning lyrics, using the new Lyricsto, you need a note in a voice for each syllable. The purpose of Lyricsto is to specify which voice you want to line up with, rather than the old addlyrics way of specifying the count of each syllable. That's why I put your two parts together into the upper voice, then hid some of the notes. You don't need the 4 anymore after Hal, and the hyphenation is centered with double -- . See if this is more of what you wanted.

ES \addlyrics (2.0) is converted to \oldaddlyrics, which is ES strongly deprecated, and pretty unsupported. It is known that ES it sometimes doesn't work. This seems like a bad decision to me, for a number of reasons: One of the ways old users learn to use new features is to run convert-ly on their old source. If convert-ly creates bad lilypond, it makes learning to use the new features difficult. It means that nobody will upgrade lilypond who is working on a large vocal music project. Therefore, the newer versions of lilypond will get less testing on such projects. ES There is no good automated way to convert from \oldaddlyrics ES to \lyricsto, so I'm afraid you'll have to fix it manually. I'm willing to believe there is no automated way to convert every possible \addlyrics to an equivalent \lyricsto. I don't believe that the most common cases couldn't be handled. For example, two verses, with a chorus appended to the first verse, as in the example I submitted. -- Laura (mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] , http://www.laymusic.org/ ) (617) 661-8097 fax: (501) 641-5011 233 Broadway, Cambridge, MA 02139 ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

songbook questions
Hello, I'd like to prepare some song sheets where the text of second and more verses is simply set in one or two columns below the staffs. Or must I use TeX for such? Because I don't like LaTeX but use ConTeXt (and InDesign) I'd like to get a PDF or EPS of only staffs and related lyrics, without titling and whitespace, so that I can place the notes as graphics. How can I setup that? Further I'd like to use an other font for lyrics and chords (same font as in the rest of my publication). How must I setup that? Can I use MacOS X's system fonts or must I install fonts like for TeX? I couldn't find the answers in the docs, if they are there anyway, please point me to the right sections, thanks!
