Re: Recent user trying to find out how to mix music and text.
Another option instead of integrating LP with LaTeX just to import into OOo would be to learn LaTeX. I'm just starting off with LaTeX myself, and honestly, I think it will be better (more professional) looking and easier to integrate. All the same you should be able to import files into OOo, and it shouldn't be overly difficult.Reinhard [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi,Graham Percival wrote: On 3-Jun-06, at 1:51 AM, Roderick Camelia wrote:I'm a recent user of Lilypond and currently writing a music theory book for popular music.

You could also do lilypond --png input.ly to produce a png. :)There's also an svg backend, but I'm not certain what state it's in.
