I've tested this now and it works, indeed you can create a title page for your book by creating a Denemo score that just has LilyPond markup (*) and no actual music and make that the first "layout" in your book, then load the score and typeset various layouts adding them to your book. Richard (*) I'm not sure what the best way to do this might be - what I did was to use the "Text after Movement" on a blank score and then delete the only staff in the movement so that all that was left was the text. > > Richard > > > > Joe > > > > On 11 Feb 2022 16:54, Richard Shann <rich...@rshann.plus.com> > > wrote: > > > On Fri, 2022-02-11 at 09:49 +0000, Joe Wilkinson wrote: > > > > Hi Richard, > > > > I've just tried it out on a 128 measure piece. > > > > It works fine though, as you say, it would be nice if > > > > * it could print out different parts with different score > > > > sizes > > > > (could be difficult) > > > > * if the score size chosen wasn't always the last one > > > > * if the individual parts could start on a new page, and > > > > * if the version didn't get printed out for each part, in a > > > > stack! > > > > > > All of these (except perhaps the last) are not possible at > > > present > > > with > > > LilyPond (*) so I have created a way to do this from Denemo. > > > Attached is a Scheme script which allows you to create a "Book" > > > comprizing various layouts which the command will combine > > > together > > > as a > > > final PDF.
