Carl - the syllables in the sample that you posted appear to all be vowel-centered, not right-justified. Have you tried the "vowel-centered lyrics" modification that some people are using? It works quite well for me. The left-justified first syllable of the stanza would still be a problem to solve, but maybe this will help with everything else. Maybe I'm misunderstanding and your right-justified last syllables are coming from a different source. -- David _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
