The fact that they chose to switch to computer-engraving doesn't contradict
that hand-engraving is far better; see:

To me it seems like hairpinToBarline works correctly in 2.10 as long as the
(de-)crescendo ends in '\!' and not in an absolute dynamic like '\f'.
Is this the way it is supposed to work? Is there any switch to make it work
with absolute dynamics, too? '\!\f' doesn't work.

Hello,
I'm trying to make MPEG-4 notation files from lilypond
output. Each key frame is a score sheet (a PNG picture)
shown for a specific time, but it has to be synchronous with
the music played (also generated from lilypond).
To achieve that I need a list of play times per sheet and

Hello, all!
On another note, I'm looking for the paper quality, printing
technique and
printer that will best do LilyPond justice.
I find the Rockland 70lb (140g), 11x17, cream-coloured paper lives up
to Lilypond standards!
Best,
