When I want .png output, I usually type something like this in the command line: lilypond -dbackend=eps -dno-gs-load-fonts -dinclude-eps-fonts --png my_file.ly Is it possible to do all of this from inside the .ly file? Using the ly:set-option command, I can do most of it: #(ly:set-option 'backen

For the cue notes, there's built-in support, see http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.11/Documentation/user/lilypond/Writing-parts#Formatting-cue-notes For the time signature changes, you would have to enter them into the trumpet part even if you didn't have any cue notes, right? I guess the part looks som
