Hi Chris,
AFAIK the only limit is available Memory for processing.
You only have to calculate width and height in cm or in(ch), lilypond

This format is joined to the global paper-alist and can then get called
in a paper block.

Hi everyone. I'm still a relative newcomer to Lilypond, but I just want to say
first off that lurking in this newsgroup has been a tremendous asset as I learn.
I'm currently working on a vocal score. I'd like to lay out the music on legal
paper, landscape, with two pages per sheet. Like this laugh

Are the PDF header writing modifications that you tried still needed in
future versions to make 9x12 work?

ow and the PDF is
behaving itself in Adobe Reader.
BTW Finale calls this page size "Concert", and yes it is a standard, the
wikipedia is wrong/incomplete.

If LilyPond is generating PostScript output, it needs to specify the
size of the rendered page in the PostScript. Otherwise the PostScript
is incomplete and cannot be properly processed by printers and by the
PDF generator both (this is why the

Hello;
I'm new to Lilypond.
I spent a while trying to make LilyPond print to 9x12 inch paper
(a relatively standard size for manuscript staff paper), and I ran
into a bunch of snags and hiccups. Hopefully how I solved them is
helpful, and perhaps someone could advise me on a "better way."
I think you'll find, as suggested, that LaTeX is the way to go for your
goals.
