Hello, I am having this warning: warning: ignoring too many clashing note columns It is normal, as there are, in fact, clashing notes. I would like to make some notes to be displayed a little to the right (so we can see them, and they do not clash so much). Is there any way to tweak

Reducing top margin when using -dbackend=eps?

2009-03-07 Thread Risto Vääräniemi
Hi, It seems that the (negative) top-margin and page-top-space don't have much effect on the white space at the top of the page if I use -dbackend=eps. I am able to reduce the top margin (with negative top-margin) if I invoke LP normally. I'm using this EPS feature to get separate PDFs. Is there

My (lilypond-book) files have always the extension *.lytex. But if my *.lytex file has some included files like \input{preambel} the shell command output is ! LaTeX Error: File `preambel.tex' not found. If I compile the same file as a normal LaTeX-file (*.tex) it works fine! Thanks Wolfgang

problem with horizontal shift of note
