I do use --ps all the time, and the usage manual is clear on this option: --ps Generate PostScript. so it never would have occurred to me that --ps means NOT --ps if the backend option is eps. Now the usage manual does state: The prefix no- may be added to option-name to switch 'off' an option, e.g. -dpoint-and-click=#f is the same as -dno-point-and-click so I tried -dno-ps but that generates: warning: no such internal option: no-ps Just to show I am doing due diligence, the usage manual also says: --png Generate pictures of each page, in PNG format. This implies '--ps'. --pdf Generate PDF. This implies '--ps'. but in both cases, no "ps" file exists after the command.

Re: lilypondfile
The vertical spacing between systems in lilypond-book is established by LaTeX, not LilyPond, so most spacing parameters will not be effective. Ouch! 8-( Having to fuss with vertical spacing in two places is unfortunate, especially since the latex version only gives a fixed spacing whereas lilypond allows control at multiple levels. I don't think knowing the "number of files already included in this snippet" is going to be helpful. Maybe I need to directly include PS/PDF output from lilypond if I want them to be the same. 8-( Intersystem spacing in lilypond-book is documented in the usage manual, though possibly not really obvious: Yes, I saw those macros but never imagined I would need them unless I have to tweak after the fact.

The vertical spacing between systems in lilypond-book is established by
LaTeX, not LilyPond, so most spacing parameters will not be effective.
Intersystem spacing in lilypond-book is documented in the usage manual,
though possibly not really obvious:
Each snippet will call the following macros if they have been
defined by the user:
* `\preLilyPondExample' called before the music,
* `\postLilyPondExample' called after the music,
* `\betweenLilyPondSystem[1]' is called between systems if
`lilypond-book' has split the snippet into several PostScript
files. It must be defined as taking one parameter and will be
passed the number of files already included in this snippet. The
default is to simply insert a `\linebreak'.
So you need to define betweenLilyPondSystem to insert space, something
like
\newcommand\betweenLilyPondSystem[1]{\linebreak\vspace{5mm}}

Re: Lilypondfile: does not seem to work
Ok.
So well.. I tweaked a little bit and now it seems to work. What I wanted
is just the anhang (appendix) to be typesetted by lilypond, the other
examples I wanted as simple images. So I kept the file structure and
just made a file anhang.lytex which I compiled (tanks very much for the
make file) and then just included the anhang.pdf in the regular document
with includepdf. Then I had to tweak with setcounter and addtotoc. Well.
That's how it worked. Maybe there's a neater solution...
But at all thanks a lot for your help.

Re: Lilypondfile: does not seem to work
If your file is a lytex file and you are using lilypond-book, I think
the first mistake is the use of '\include'. Change it by '\input':
\input{kapitel/einleitung/einleitung}
anyway, send your folder to me and let me see if I can make it work.

Here is my small example on how to use Lilypond-book. Just unzip this
attached file, using a terminal shell, enter the folder "01" and run
this command:
'sh makefile'
doing this you will see a pdf and ps file as a result. Good luck. Any

Re: Lilypondfile: does not seem to work
The fundamental thing to remember is this:
To use \lilypond or \begin{lilypond}, you need to write
a .lytex file. This *CANNOT* be done inside a .latex or .tex
file.
Use lilypond-book to translate from .lytex to .tex.
The makefile is just an automated way to do this. If you prefer,
you could use a shell script, or even do it manually by hand.
