Music sheets LyX
Hello all! I need to put some music notation in a book document layout. I have tried to convert picture files (bmp,jpg f.ex.) to eps but that doesn't work at all, some bar lines dissappear etc. What is the best way to do this for example if the sheets are in dvi, ps or pdf format (made by Lilypond)? Cheers, ei -- @~~~ EagleIce [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~~~@ @ Running SuSE Linux 7.1 at home @ @ Caldera OL eDesktop 2.4 at work ~~~@

Hey well! I thought i was the only one including music in LyX-Documents... I always include the resulting TeX-Files from lilypond inside a float as input (set linewidth in the ly-file to something according to your document) or in the text (for short stuff like chords or motifs) with linewidth=-1 BTW: Check out lilypond 1.4.2! it's marvellous ;-) If you have really much music in the book, consider using lilypond-book (I'd be very interested in getting a lyx-layout file for it...). Have fun* Niklas

Usually I don't bother checking any updates because SuSE itself updates the whole distro a couple of times a year anyway, and they always include Lilypond (and LyX...:-) Cheers, ei -- @~~~ EagleIce [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~~~@ @ Running SuSE Linux 7.1 at home @ @ Caldera OL eDesktop 2.4 at work ~~~@
