Re: convert problem

Hello list

I haven't had any problems recently, so I haven't been here in a bit. 
 I'm running OSX, I just downloaded 2.11.19-1 (Build from Sun Feb 18  
01:19:40) and I'm having a problem converting what I thought was a  
pretty recent file.


The file is this:
\version 2.10


Try adding a full version number, for example
\version 2.10.0
That should hopefully solve the conversion problems.

First volta bracket not closed, 2nd horizontally misaligned

Re: Problems with Lilypond-book, accidentals, and time signatures

2007-02-22 Thread Mats Bengtsson
This sounds like some weird problem with some font file. I seem to 
remember that there were some similar problems

in some distributions of version 2.6 or possibly version 2.8
but not in any of the 2.10 packages available at www.lilypond.org.
I hope you have made sure that you really use version 2.10 and not some 
older version that's left from some previous installation.

Problem 2) Note the initial 8th note rest is not rendered.

I'm running under FreeBSD 5.4-RELEASE.  I am using the following versions:

- ghostscript-gnu v2.07-15 (for the latex system, not lilypond)

I would really appreciate any advice you could give me.  I'm not sure
where to start.



As a follow-up, it appears natural signs render fine, but not sharps.



As a further follow-up, flats also render fine.  The problem seems to be
solely with the rests and the sharp signs.  Updating to 2.10.19 did not
correct the problem.

Importing PDF into Adobe Illustrator

2007-02-22 Thread Michael David Crawford

Hi Again,

I'm still working on my CD jewel case insert.

I can now make a PDF in Lilypond that is the right size.  But I tried to 
import it into Adobe Illustrator 10 for the Mac to position it on the 
printed page - otherwise it gets printed in the middle, rather than 
along the edge of the sheet, where I need it to match the outside of the 
case insert that I previously designed in Illustrator.


When I place the PDF in my Illustrator window, I get this message:

   Missing Type 1 fonts have been substituted with the default font.

And the staves are thick, solid black lines.  Also where the noteheads 
appear outside the staves they are thickened.  The overall effect is as 
if someone tried to draw the score with a thick felt marker.


Is the some option that will fix this?  It seems to me that the score 
wouldn't render in other programs if the font wasn't included in the 
PDF.  Alternatively, could I install the Lilypond fonts in Mac OS X to 
fix it?


Thanks for your help,

Re: Importing PDF into Adobe Illustrator

2007-02-22 Thread Mats Bengtsson

The fonts should be embedded in the PDF files, but it's a well-known problem
that Adobe Illustrator fails to handle many aspects of PDF and PS files, 
even

though both PS and PDF have been defined by Adobe themselves.

One possibility might be to use ps2ps, included in the Ghostscript 
distribution
to convert the file to a simpler Postscript. In spite of the name of 
the program,
you can use both PDF and PS files as  the input, but at least if you 
have a recent
version of Ghostscript, it's probably better to start from the .ps file 
from LilyPond.

Re: First volta bracket not closed, 2nd horizontally misaligned

2007-02-22 Thread Mats Bengtsson

Just as in the example in section Printing Chord Names, it seems that you
need to add the bar line engraver to the chord names context (the bar line
won't show up in print, but LilyPond needs it to handle the volta brackets
correctly).

\version 2.10.19
\header {
   title = 1. volta bracket not closed
}
Melody = \context Voice = Melody {
   \relative c' {
   \repeat volta 2 {c c c c}
   \alternative {{c1} {c}}
   }}

chordsymbols = \new ChordNames \with {
   voltaOnThisStaff = ##t
   \consists Bar_engraver
   }
   \chordmode  {
   \override Score.VoltaBracket #'minimum-space = #0
   c1 c c }

guitarstaff= \new Staff \with {voltaOnThisStaff= ##f }
   \Melody
\score
{
   
   \chordsymbols
   \guitarstaff
   
}

Hi Michael,

I can't vouch for Illustrator, but I had very similar problems with
InDesign. The good news, is, however, that I did manage to get
letter-perfect output from InDesign ... after about 2 and half weeks
of figuring the following things out. All this is on Intel OS X box,
BTW.

1. If you're working on a Mac, the most evil thing in this process is
that Apple's Preview application causes flat out weird stuff to happen
*if you open with Preview and then re-save with Preview*, say, for the
purpose of renaming your PDF. It's fine to *view* with Preview, but
under no circumstances should you resave your PDFs with Preview. If
you need to rename scores, just do so through the operating system.
(Of course if you're on Windows or Linux, this doesn't apply.)

2. Placing the file in InDesign worked fine (so long as I obeyed step
1), just using File  Place.

3. On exporting from InDesign, there was a very important detail. The
PDF created using File  Export  PDF did *not* work correctly on all
printers; the file would look OK on screen in InDesign but would
export with weird font problems in the LilyPond inserts (such as
gracenote flags displacing horizontally from the stems to which they
attach). The solution was to use File  Export  EPS from within
InDesign to generates EPSes, then open in Distiller with File  Open
to create the PDF. That always worked perfectly.

That was it. So the two most important points were to keep Apple's
Preview completely out of the pipeline, and to export from InDesign as
EPS (rather than as PDF).

If you don't have InDesign this won't help, but on the chance that you
have CS2 I thought I'd pass along the tips.

Re: Two Creative Commons Piano Scores

2007-02-22 Thread Michael David Crawford
I'm sorry, it turned out that the US Letter PDF I provided for Recursion 
was sized for A4 paper, not US Letter.  It probably got cut off if you 
tried to print it.


It's corrected now, as is the Lilypond source.  The PDF for Emergence 
didn't have this problem.


I was having some trouble getting system-count to work if I set the 
paper size explicitly.  It turns out what I needed was to put the \paper 
block BEFORE the \include of the main source file, and to set 
system-count AFTER setting the paper size.

Mats is right, it is something about the fonts.


The only other thing is the --output option needs an = sign.  Your  
script does not.  That means output from lilypond-book will not wind  
up in lilyscratch as you intended.  If you are looking for it there,  
you will have something old (maybe from a previous version of lilypond.

If you are merely queuing the cover to the printer, why don't you  
just define a custom Paper Size for your printer.  Preview can make  
it fit top and left justified.


In Preview, hit File / Page Setup.
The third pull-down is Paper Size: pull down and select Manage  
Custom Sizes.

On the Custom Page Sizes menu, hit + and define your page size:
4.75 X 4.75
Printer Margins User defined, Top 0, Left 0, Right 0, Bottom 0.
(I think you name it somewhere, I called mine CD Cover)

I can print graphics right on the pre-cut jewel case covers that came

Re: Importing PDF into Adobe Illustrator

2007-02-22 Thread Michael David Crawford

Thanks Fred,

That will work for me, but I'd like to also supply the case insert as a 
PDF on my website - my whole CD is Creative Commons-licensed, so I offer 
free downloads of it.


But I was only trying to use Illustrator to position the score on the 
paper.  Maybe it would work to position it from the Lilypond source.


The PDF for the outside of the case insert has some instruction at the 
top of the landscape-oriented sheet, with the insert graphics at the 
bottom.  Maybe it would work to just add a large margin above the 
Lilypond header?


Also, I defined the custom case insert paper size in one of Lilypond's 
scheme source files, as instructed in the manual.  But I don't want to 
require that of those who download my Lilypond source.  Can a custom 
paper size be defined in a \paper block?


Please be patient with me... I'm still a newbie with Lilypond.  But I 
have quite grand musical ambitions: someday I'll be scoring symphonies 
with Lilypond.  I'm very determined!

export with weird font problems in the LilyPond inserts (such as
gracenote flags displacing horizontally from the stems to which they
attach). The solution was to use File  Export  EPS from within
InDesign to generates EPSes, then open in Distiller with File  Open
to create the PDF. That always worked perfectly.

That was it. So the two most important points were to keep Apple's
Preview completely out of the pipeline, and to export from InDesign as
EPS (rather than as PDF).

If you don't have InDesign this won't help, but on the chance that you
have CS2 I thought I'd pass along the tips.

I pasted your snippet into a TeX file and ran lilypond-book  
(2.11.19.)  Output looked good to me.  I used pdflatex:

cd pdflatex
open lily-173dcc0941.pdf


Well, a more relevant command is
pdflatex InlineFragment.tex
open InlineFragment.pdf

This is actually a good hint for Aaron, namely to use the --pdf flag 
and pdflatex instead of --psfonts, latex, dvips and ps2pdf.

The font files should be the same, but you never know with software.

Also, I really hope that Aaron removed all generated lily-* files
from any older LilyPond installation before trying to run lilypond-book
again with a newer one. The same goes if you earlier have used --psfonts
and then want to use --pdf instead.

First let me say thank you.  The pdflatex solution did indeed work.
Unfortunately, this is not a permanent solution.  There are indeed
differences (both internally and in regards to output) between pdflatex
and the latex-dvips-ps2pdf way of doing things.  Being one that uses
bibTeX and a few other oddities, I have become quite accustomed to the
latex route.  Is there a way to correct the --psfonts problem?

Thank you again for your time and assistance.  I feel much better having
this paper finally printed out.  Now to find this DejaVuLGC font
everybody keeps talking about so I can get my Lyric Ties working!

Cheers!

Cluster note heads

2007-02-22 Thread Eyolf Ostrem
While we're at the subject of note heads: is it possible to specify a cluster 
as the tone height? I don't mean the \makeClusters command, since that - as 
several others have pointed out - does not seem to work very well for single 
cluster chords. What I'd like is a sqqare notehead whose note span can be 
specified, but which otherwise behaves as ordinary notes, i.e., it can have 
stems, it can be filled or open (for whole notes etc).
What i've done so far, is specify two very short, identical chords with 
\makeClusters and fill up the rest of the space with s. Not ideal.
If this is already in the manual, forgive me for not having found it. And if 
it's not - perhaps something to consider?

I tried it using --psfonts and everything worked fine that way as well.

dvips(k) 5.95b
kpathsea version 3.5.5

gs --version

Unfortunately, this version / path / fonts / environment stuff is not

Rests with multiple parts and text above parts

2007-02-22 Thread Rebecca Gilbert
I have a transcription that I'm working on in 4 vocal parts and in more 
than one place, I have multiple parts on a rest.  If both voices on a 
staff are on a rest, how do I display one rest centered rather than two 
rests above each other.


The first instance of the rests that I want to fix is in bar 4.  I want 
the bass clef to share one rest.  I tried putting s4 in one part, but 
the other rest was still off set.


The other question I have is about additional words above the text.  In 
bar 48-49, I have some echo words and the spacing is funny.  How do I 
define the spacing that I want so the word is all on the same level?


Thanks,

Rebecca

perhaps half your answer...
how about using the trick of positioning a rest with a note?

{ d'4/rest }

\flageolet too big

2007-02-22 Thread Werner LEMBERG

The flageolet sign is too big for me -- this is both a matter of
taste and the intended purpose.

I tried to make it smaller, and I failed.  To be more specific, I
tried to define a shorthand \F which should behave similar to the
\flageolet command but printing the `flageolet' glyph at a smaller
size.

How can I do that?  Note, however, that I'm not interested in a
solution which generally reduces the size of the Script grobs (this is
what I'm doing now because I couldn't find something better) since it
would have unpleasand side effects if there is more than a single
articulation sign is attached to the note head.

I would like to say this

  F = #(make-music 'ArticulationEvent
   'articulation-type flageolet
   'font-size -3)

but the `font-size' property has no effect, and I don't know how to
make this work...
