Re: lilypond-book -> latex
> I need package "lilypond-book->latex". How can I download it ? If you have downloaded or installed LilyPond, you should already have the `lilypond-book` script. On the command line, say ``` lilypond-book --help ``` for a first overview of the available options; you need to add `--format=latex` to make the script handle LaTeX input files. Assuming that you are using the latest stable release (2.22.2), the complete documentation of `lilypond-book` is available online as https://lilypond.org/doc/v2.22/Documentation/usage/lilypond_002dbook Werner
lilypond-book -> latex
Hi. Carlos, from Brazil. I need package "lilypond-book->latex". How can I download it ? Thanks
lilypond-book latex input duplicating
If I \input{something} twice in a lytex file, it gets duplicated by lilypond-book. How do I keep this from happening? I'm using lilypond 2.22.2, from brew. For example: inp.lytex: \documentclass[]{book} \begin{document} Hey! \input{you} Hey! \input{you} \end{document} you.tex: You! command: $ lilypond-book --output=out --pdf inp.lytex now see out/you.tex: $ cat out/you.tex You! You! There are 2 "You!" strings, and the pdf file, from running "pdflatex inp.tex" in out/, looks like: Hey! You! You! Hey! You! You! What I expect is: Hey! You! Hey! You! By the way, if I input it three times it gets triplicated. If I do it once, it is normal. Thanks, Jason

Well, if § 3.1.2.3 (Modules) of the User's Guide doesn't help (what does it say), I would look through the .log file from an attempt at running LP-book, and see if it tells you what it's specifically failing to find.

Any LyX users? Missing prerequisites: lilypond-book->latex
[Asked on the lyx mailing list but, so far, no response.] Hi, I'm running the latest -- and greatest(?) -- release of Pop!_OS, which is effectively Ubuntu. Specifically, 22.04 LTS ("Jammy"). I'm finding myself having a hard enough time with LilyPond alone, without the added burden of learning everything about LaTeX, XeTeX, LuaTeX, etc, (just to get the font I want) along with LilyPond-Book.

lilypond-book/LateX Beamer: best rendering practice?
Hi all, As mentioned earlier, I am planning to deliver a Lilypond workshop together with a friend at this year's Linux Audio Conference. For the workshop slides, I already have a working setup using lilypond-book --pdf in combination with pdflatex and LaTeX Beamer. However, I am not entirely satisfied with the *on-screen* PDF display that my current setup provides. In particular, the BWV 861 comparison between Finale (PDF from [1]) and Lilypond (generated with lilypond-book --pdf and pdflatex) does not look half as convincing as the PNG comparison on the website [2], no matter which PDF viewer I use. Don't worry, I am not gonna embark on a discussion of barline thickness for on-screen PDF rendering :) But I would be interested in your suggestions re. a best Lilypond rendering practice for my following requirements: ===BEGIN LETTER TO SANTA=== - On-screen display must be of sufficient enough quality to convince also without printed examples. The benchmark is the BWV 861 comparison mentioned above. - Must use lilypond-book and LaTeX Beamer, but choice of Lilypond/LaTeX output format (PDF, PNG, PS, etc.) is flexible. - I don't care which viewer application (acroread, Okular, etc.) I have to use for the presentation, but it should ideally work under Linux. - Doesn't hurt if the final document looks good in print, too :) However, I'd be willing to implement two parallel rendering toolchains for on-screen and print. ===END LETTER TO SANTA=== I have a feeling this might boil down to a PDF vs. PNG showdown? - For high-quality LaTeX documents, PDF seems to be preferable to PNG, hence my initial choice of pflatex and lilypond-book --pdf. - But I get the impression that PNGs (rather than PDFs) might be the way to go for better-quality on-screen display of Lilypond output? Any comments or pointers in the right directions will be greatly appreciated!

I guess the benefit of PNG is that you're not reliant on the PDF on-screen renderer to control the look of the output. However, if you create the PNGs you're going to use at their final size, you're still dependent on a relatively unsophisticated mechanism to fit the lines and features to the pixels. I would experiment with creating PNGs much larger than you require and resizing them with an image processing application.

Re: lilypond-book/LateX Beamer: best rendering practice?
Hi Phil, I'll go and do as you say, but wouldn't I be facing the problem that pdflatex has its own ideas at which resolution to actually render PNGs? That's precisely why I have ended up using graphics in PDF format whenever I can with pdflatex, but maybe I should investigate LaTeX rendering options other than *pdf*latex...

However, if you create the PNGs you're going to use at their final size, you're still dependent on a relatively unsophisticated mechanism to fit the lines and features to the pixels. I would experiment with creating PNGs much larger than you require and resizing them with an image processing application. Also experiment with LilyPond's anti-alias-factor. ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
Re: lilypond-book/LateX Beamer: best rendering practice?
Florian Hollerweger f...@mur.at writes: Hi Phil, I'll go and do as you say, but wouldn't I be facing the problem that pdflatex has its own ideas at which resolution to actually render PNGs? It just packages them. It is up to you with what resolution you prepare them before inclusion into PDFLaTeX. That's precisely why I have ended up using graphics in PDF format whenever I can with pdflatex, With print, very much the best idea. Maybe it is worth checking out a number of PDF previewers, too. -- David Kastrup ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Lilypond-book + LaTeX (WinXP)
Hi everyone. I seem to have a problem with lilypond-book, when it calls latex. I have WinXP SP2, TexLive 2005 from Ctan (the whole thing), and Lilypond 2.9.18 (development). I did this (meaning, I installed the development version vs the stable one) to avoid some problems that I read were present in the stable version (about TexLive). Anyway, I write in command line: lilypond-book --format=latex --psfonts --output=1stExample.tex 1stExample.lytex It responds: lilypond-book.py (GNU Lilypond) 2.9.18 Reading 1stExample.lytex...

Let me add that all the other formats except latex (in other words, texi, texi-html and html) actually produce something. Only latex has this problem. What can I do? I have so far done everything I read - installed the all-new python, removed lililyb.py and convertrules and all, put them back, you name it. Any help would be very appreciated. BTW, the 1stExample.lytex is the one from the pdf book (the musicological example). -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Lilypond-book-%2B-LaTeX-%28WinXP%29-tf2319305.html#a6452374 Sent from the Gnu - Lilypond - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
