 Hi all!
 
 I have composed a Missa Brevis (short Mass) setting with several distinct 
 pieces.  In the past I have simply printed each piece out on separate 
 pages.  However, I would like to put them all together in a book, with 
 title page, contents (with one-bar snippets if that's not too difficult), 
 a page of comments, etc.  Can someone point me to where in the 
 documentation (or elsewhere) I can find *all* the necessary information on 
 doing that?  I have looked in the docs, and found some of it, but I think 
 I am missing something.  I use 2.5.29, and run it on FreeBSD 5.3 with a 
 reasonable amount of horsepower and ram.
 
 Thanks in advance,
 
 Blessings,
 
 Fr. Gordon Gilbert+

 Hello Gordon, I don't have any documentations to offer, but I have
two examples at http://aspodata.se/noter/ (lilypond 2.4 only).
They use lilypond-book and latex.

There is no place where you can find all this info.  The snippets would 
probably
be done with quotes, the overall book with \book, titles with \header and 
possibly
printallheaders, etc.  You'll need to hunt around in the docs (and possibly 
lilypond-user

as well) to find all this info.

Graham, thanks for the reply.  I was thinking that would be something like 
your answer.  A while back I created a liturgy booklet using OpenOffice 
with PNGs inserted where I needed to.  In OO I was able to shrink the 
lilypond pieces as necessary to fit them in.  Having tweaked my lilypond 
files the way I want them, would this also not be a reasonable way to do 
the job, and also include other graphics as necessary?  Especially for 
non-geeks like myself?  (Perhaps objectionable only to the Lily purists 
:-)


Blessings,

Fr. Gordon Gilbert

You could certainly do it manually with OpenOffice.  This kind of thing 
can be done
automatically, but it requires some geeky stuff (shell script, the 
convert utility,

possibly lilypond-book, etc).
