Actually, if you open lily.scm in an editor, look for the text string paper-size "a4" and change it to paper-size "letter", that will change the default paper size without having to specify anything on the command line or source file(s). But the default will go back to A4 each time you install a new version of Lilypond and get a new version of lily.scm. On Linux, lily.scm is in /usr/local/lilypond/usr/share/lilypond/current/scm if installed as root or the corresponding path under ~/lilypond if installed in your home dir. Don't know what the path is on Windows. Nick _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
