Sorry, I never delved into the lilypond-book-preamble; I always treated it as a black box. My first suggestion is to try adding a [papersize=a3] or something like that. Obviously you'll have seen that compiling the full .ly (instead of only the "Start cut-&-pastable section" [shouldn't that be "pasteable"?] contains Drawing systems... warning: compressing over-full page by 29.5 staff-spaces so apparently lilypond decides that the page height is less than it should be? a git grep in the code reveals that this warning comes from lily/page-layout-problem.cc ... /** For ragged-last pages, we usually want to stretch the page so that it is not much more compressed than the previous page. Here, if ragged is true and you pass a value of fixed_force that !isinf, then I will try to space this page using the given force. If it does not fit, I will resort to just filling the page (non-raggedly). */ void Page_layout_problem::solve_rod_spring_problem (bool ragged, Real fixed_force) so maybe playing with various [ragged] options would help? another idea is to try commenting out bits and pieces of lilypond-book-preamble.ly until you find the problem-causing line(s). Start by copying that file into a new directory (along with the snippet), rename the file (and the \include), then comment away. Standard "making a minimal snippet" thing. Sorry I couldn't be more help, - Graham _______________________________________________ bug-lilypond mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-lilypond
