Basic LilyPond Cheat Sheet
Dear all, Sometimes it can be very useful -- in particular for new and not so experienced users -- to have the basic LilyPond syntax available compressed on one single sheet. I have created such a cheat sheet that displays the basic lilypond syntax and usage (without any tweaks and overrides) on one single page, while also being visually appealing. The cheat sheet is meant to be a quick summary of the things explained in the learning manual, but does not replace the learning manual. It simply is a quick reminder of all the stuff, once you have read the learning manual. Attached you can find the PDF version of this cheat sheet: http://www.fam.tuwien.ac.at/~reinhold/temp/2011-08-24_LilyPond_CheatSheet_Basic.pdf I also provide nicely printed copies of the cheat sheet for basically my own costs (3€ per sheet + shipping): http://www.edition-kainhofer.com/en/lilypond/details/2111/ These copies are printed borderless on heavier paper and are laminated, so they are waterproof and should hold for years. Chers, Reinhold PS: I'm also planning to write a cheat sheet with basic tweaks/overrides and the various paper/header fields. But that might take a while. -- -- Reinhold Kainhofer, reinh...@kainhofer.com, http://reinhold.kainhofer.com/ * Financial & Actuarial Math., Vienna Univ. of Technology, Austria * http://www.fam.tuwien.ac.at/, DVR: 0005886 * LilyPond, Music typesetting, http://www.lilypond.org ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

The appendix B contains mostly similar snippets, but 1) my cheatsheet has more than those snippets (i.e. Appendix B corresponds more or less to my "Basic Notation" box; But my cheat sheet also shows command line usage, some contexts, examples for lyrics, hierarchies, markup), 2) takes way more than one sheet when printed, and 3) is not nearly as good-looking as my cheat sheet ;-) Cheers, Reinhold -- -- Reinhold Kainhofer, reinh...@kainhofer.com, http://reinhold.kainhofer.com/ * Financial & Actuarial Math., Vienna Univ. of Technology, Austria * http://www.fam.tuwien.ac.at/, DVR: 0005886 * LilyPond, Music typesetting, http://www.lilypond.org ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

No, printing is not disallowed. It is probably some incompatibility with Acrobat Reader. I can print it just fine from okular.

Re: Basic LilyPond Cheat Sheet
If nothing else works, there is this (for command-line buffs possibly dissatisfactory) option of online conversion at, e.g., http://docupub.com/pdfconvert/ This worked for me, anyway. Nice work, Reinhold, and thanks for sharing!

That's strange! I just looked at it in evince 2.32.0 on Ubuntu 11.04 and it was beautiful. evince DID give 105 errors on the file, I'm attaching them. okular gave only 75 of the same errors, e.g. "Error (294822): Dictionary key must be a name object". Running evince again gave 90 of the similar errors. acroread also showed it well. Printing: acroread - popup saying "The document could not be printed" evince - printed without error* okular - printed without error* * other than the errors mentioned above which don't seem to interfere with the rendering Patrick ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
