I have struggled with this one in the past and gave up in the end. There are some tweaks I found on the archived threads but I found it easier to enter the segnoMark and codaMark manually. Ditto for the"D.S. al Coda" (which is what I think you mean in your example. I often edit big band and small

Hi, I run into a problem when I create a (very high) single-page PDF file from a Lilypond score. 'After a certain time', the rest of the page is rendered in white. In my use case, I wanted to make a large system staff, and white-on-black music, because of readability-reasons. Specifically:
