I've attached my boilerplate that I use for producing a PDF file with
separate title page, table of contents page, and multiple pieces within the
file. For a single piece just delete the TOC stuff, the additional
bookparts for the additional pieces, and set
first-page-number to zero rather than minus one.
Nice example, I have just a couple of questions:
\bookpart {
\paper {
print-page-number = ##t %% -- this is not needed, is it?
}
\header {
title = \markup {
\fromproperty #'toc:number %% -- it doesn't print the number
Piece One } % overrides overall title

You seem to be right on both counts. It's been so long since I created
this file that I can't remember why I used those values, or if they ever
actually did anything. Scores based on the boilerplate kept building
without warnings or errors, so I kept using the file...

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Having now got LilyPond 2.18.0 set up on my two machines,
thanks to all the help from the list, I have now started
trying to adjust the output of the pieces I have so far produced.
I have used \header blocks for title, composer etc., and these
are working as I would wish.
However, I should like to produce a separate title page which
precedes the music, but everything I have tried so far doesn't
work. Usually I either get additional text added to the first
page of music, or I get no title above the music itself.
Of course, I could easily create a title page in LibreOffice
or similar, but as LilyPond seems to have sufficient markup
capabilities to do anything I am likely to want on a title
page, it seems a shame not to keep the whole thing in the one place.
What I would like to do is to have some items (e.g. title,
composer) appearing on page 1, and some of the same ones
appearing above the music which starts on page 2 (or perhaps
page 3 in some cases). I imagine it is possible to set things
up so that the data only appears once in the file - e.g.
Title appears once in the .ly file, but appears both on the
title page (page 1) and on the first page of music.
Here is an abbreviated example of one of my efforts:
\version 2.18.0
\book {
\paper {
indent = 0\mm
scoreTitleMarkup = \markup {
\fill-line {
\null
\fontsize #3 \bold \fromproperty #'header:piece
\null
}
}
first-page-number = #2
}
\header {
title = Partita
subtitle= for solo marimba
}
\score {
{ c'1 c' }
\header { piece = I. Allemande }
\layout { }
}
\pageBreak
\score {
{ d'1 d' }
\header { piece = II. Courante }
\layout { }
}
}
How should I alter this to get a title page showing Partita
and for solo marimba on a title page preceding the music pages?

Thanks for that - it seems to be one permutation I hadn't tried!
I must confess that I find some aspects of LilyPond a little hard to
fathom. For instance, the order in which things need to be done is not
always obvious, e.g. a \header section has to come after the music in a
\score section, yet obviously the header is printed first.
Anyway, I have now come up with the following, which seems to work. No
doubt it could be improved, so any suggestions would be welcome.

Re: Producing a title page
Nicholas Sceaux created code for doing this, which has been adapted
inside Denemo. So you could use that directly, or use Denemo to create
your title page and just steal the LilyPond code from there. There is an
example of the sort of title page you can get here:

this also includes table of contents etc. The source code is on the

\header { piece = I. Allemande }
\layout { }
}
\pageBreak
\score {
{ d'1 d' }
\header { piece = II. Courante }
\layout { }
}
}
How should I alter this to get a title page showing Partita and for
solo marimba on a title page preceding the music pages?

Richard,
Where abouts on the Denemo website is the source code for that cover page
'template'? Thanks!

RE: Producing a title page
David,
Putting a \pagebreak after the first header and before the first score
seems to accomplish what you want.

Subject: Producing a title page
Having now got LilyPond 2.18.0 set up on my two machines, thanks to all the
help from the list, I have now started trying to adjust the output of the
pieces I have so far produced.
I have used \header blocks for title, composer etc., and these are working
as I would wish.
However, I should like to produce a separate title page which precedes the
music, but everything I have tried so far doesn't work. Usually I either
get additional text added to the first page of music, or I get no title
above the music itself.
Of course, I could easily create a title page in LibreOffice or similar, but
as LilyPond seems to have sufficient markup capabilities to do anything I am
likely to want on a title page, it seems a shame not to keep the whole thing
in the one place.
What I would like to do is to have some items (e.g. title, composer)
appearing on page 1, and some of the same ones appearing above the music
which starts on page 2 (or perhaps page 3 in some cases). I imagine it is
possible to set things up so that the data only appears once in the file -
e.g. Title appears once in the .ly file, but appears both on the title
page (page 1) and on the first page of music.
Here is an abbreviated example of one of my efforts:
\version 2.18.0
\book {
\paper {
indent = 0\mm
scoreTitleMarkup = \markup {
\fill-line {
\null
\fontsize #3 \bold \fromproperty #'header:piece
\null
}
}
first-page-number = #2
}
\header {
title = Partita
subtitle= for solo marimba
}
\score {
{ c'1 c' }
\header { piece = I. Allemande }
\layout { }
}
\pageBreak
\score {
{ d'1 d' }
\header { piece = II. Courante }
\layout { }
}
}
How should I alter this to get a title page showing Partita and for solo
marimba on a title page preceding the music pages?

In practice you would need to load it into Denemo and then export the LilyPond to get to the LilyPond text, of course, otherwise you would need to grub around in the Denemo source tree.

But...I can't access that website, it's a .local and it's not loading in any of my browsers. I'll check the showcase online and see if I can find it that way. - composer | sound designer LilyPond Tutorials (for beginners) -- http://bit.ly/bcl-lilypond -- View this message in context: http://lilypond.1069038.n5.nabble.com/Producing-a-title-page-tp158658p158671.html Sent from the User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
