See the section on Line breaking for information on how to include
line breaks in the middle of a measure. The same principle applies to
page breaks.

Hi,
I'm a first time poster - I've been trying to use Lilypond for
proportionally notating multi-tempo music.
I'm writing a score that has two or more voices in different tempi
simultaneously.
To solve this, I make a huge measure. For example, the first staff
will contain a minute of quarter notes at q=90 BPM. The second staff
will contain a minute of quarter notes at q=167 BPM. The second staff
has the same time as the first, but I compress the music in a 90:167
ratio so that it all lines up correctly in time.
The problem comes with layout. Currently, I make a huge page, and
then split it into parts using acrobat pro.
It seems however that there is a maximum page width of about 200
inches. So the amount of time I have to play with is limited by the
page size.
Alternatively, it would be nice to slice the staff system through the
middle of the measures, but I have been unable to force a page break
because the staves have independent, non-aligned bars.
Does anyone know how to a) infinitely increase the paper width or b)
force a page break in a system containing staves with independent,
non-aligned bars?
Best regards,
Adam Wilson
