Okay, so I've gotten to the point where I can generate the staves with the litany text in between.
I figure I'll have format all the bold and italics myself,
but how do I go about getting all the syllables lined up? Do I use an ampersand on every word?

Does anyone have a code example?

Say, can anyone give me a *tex* example then for the psalm to line up with the chant?

This cannot be done in the gabc. That only supports a single line of text.

To arrange the text as in that litany you'll probably want to use a table which is stretched to fill the text width. Look for the tabularx package.

A problem with the tabularx environment of LaTeX is that it doesn't admit page breaks inside of the table: your whole table must be on the same page. So you have to compute how many lines will fit on your pages, and split your table manually. This is annoying because when you change the layout of your output, you will have to check that the page breaks are still on the right place.

If you know a good solution for multi column output in LaTeX across several pages, please let me know.

Yours in Christ.
