Dieter, thanks for this example! It make me smile to be able to run this through my baby and have something legible come out the other end on the first try.
But I will mention that the last note came out with lyrics "???". I'm guessing that for some reason my setup thinks there are one too few syllables in the text. Can anyone else reproduce this behavior? Or maybe my musixlyr is out of date? I don't know this piece and I hardly ever do any lyrics, so I can't easily analyze the problem. --Don Simons > -----Original Message----- > From: TeX-Music [mailto:tex-music-boun...@tug.org] On Behalf Of Dieter > Sent: Wednesday, January 14, 2015 6:24 AM > To: tex-music@tug.org > Subject: Re: [Tex-music] Lyrics and Chord Symbols > > Hi Simon, > > although your problem seems to be solved, I wonder why nobody > mentioned the possibility to directly use MusiXLyr (from Rainer Dunker) > together with PMX. > Sample included. > > Regards, Dieter > > Am 12.01.2015 um 20:52 schrieb Simon Dreher: > > Hi Simon, > > > >> after searching the WIMA for several days I understood so far, that > >> the proper way of typesetting music including lyrics is using M-Tx. > >> I did not find a way to add chord symbols to my sheet of music via > >> M-Tx so far. > > M-Tx is quite convenient for music with lyrics - but it is also not > > too difficult to do the same stuff directly in pmx.
