Hi,
Thank you for your replies. Using a GUI like Frescobaldi is not really
something I can do while programming. However, I can surely insert margins to
the cropped png, which is definitely what I am going to do.
Best regards,

Hi Simon, hi David,
I am very sorry. I absolutely did not intend to make any sort of accusation. I
did word the phrase badly, led by the too impulsive thought that I couldn't
believe that LilyPond, even being so powerful, couldn't do what I thought it
would be certainly able to do.
Actually,

for what use cases they saw coming. IIUC, the PNG cropping has been
designed for use with lilypond-book, at any rate the developers didn’t
see any need for adjusting the margins. If you want to change it, you
are very welcome to propose patches, or file a concise enhancement
request
.
It is a bit sad, though, that a so powerful tool like LilyPond can't adjust
some simple things like png output margins.

think this will result in a usable workflow.
Maybe it's easier to add margins with an image editor that has automatic
batch processing like IrfanView.

HI Renato,
As an aside, why would you use backend = eps if you are generating a PNG
file? I think you can omit that.

If you are familiar with scripting, and have Windows, use it as a
template. But my guess is you will need to find different utilities to
do the conversion and cropping. This is pretty straight-forward to do,
since most of these utilities run just fine on linux and mac (though

This is a good idea. I tried it and it behaves exactly the same as
