SVG and image editing
Hi list, The idea of working with .svg files (or any other format that you can do a final edition an a image editor like Inkscape, Adobe Illustrator, Coreldraw or anything) seems to me really interesting. Because then you have a last chance to do everything you couldn't do within the code and make all the minor adjustments that you fell necessary. So I gave it a try. I added to the Smultron command -dbackend=svg. Sometimes it works, sometime it doesn't... When it does I tried to open with InkScape 0.47, and all the fonts are a MESS (see the image). I tried to open the ps and the pdf files, not better. Is it a know bug? The guys developing Lilypond think this is a good thing to focus? I find the idea of adjusting everything in a image editor really nice.

Please tell us what exact version of LilyPond are you using: svg support has been improved recently. -- Francisco Vila.

2010/4/18 Bernardo Barros bernardobarr...@gmail.com: Thanks Francisco version 2.12.3 Is there a more recent one? Yes, development releases. Patrick McCarty has implemented lots of improvements to SVG backend since summer 2009; although 2.12.2 is from january 2009 and 2.12.3 is from December, I am not sure the latter has those improvements. You could try uninstalling 2.12.3 and trying 2.13.18. -- Francisco Vila.

With 2.13.18 it works much better :-) On 18 April 2010 13:22, Francisco Vila paconet@gmail.com wrote: 2010/4/18 Bernardo Barros bernardobarr...@gmail.com: Thanks Francisco version 2.12.3 Is there a more recent one?

Re: SVG and image editing
I'm still using 2.12 for the svg output. Open the .svg output file from Lilypond with a text editor and replace all the feta-alphabet26 with emmentaler. I'm using Inkscape 0.47, so then I have to select the entire input file and ungroup twice, that gives you access to all the elements. LilyPond, LilyPondTool and Inkscape 0.47 is the GREATEST setup!! Thanks and Thanks Again to the LilyPond team for their Stellar Work and Generosity!!! (My aplogies for not knowing enough yet to contribute usefully.)
