That is _not_ how you specify a boolean value in LilyPond. You probably
want ##f here.

There's one other matter here with this score: In the console output, I see
this:
Drawing systems. . .
warning: compressing over-full page by 24.5 staff-spaces
warning: page 1 has been compressed
So how can I figure out why it's compressing the page? I don't see any
\paper block besides these I've listed that specify a size for the page, so
I don't know where it could be. Is there some special procedure for making
landscape-format scores?
Cheers,

setting one \book to landscape
Hi List,
I have an input file with the following structure:
\paper {
#(set-default-paper-size "a3" )
}
\include "file 1 - content.ly"
\include "file 2 - content.ly"
\book {
\include "file 1 - score.ly"
}
\book {
\include "file 2 - score.ly"
}
The second file has its own paper block as follows:
\paper {
#(set-paper-size "a3" 'landscape )
two-sided = "false"
left-margin = 5\mm
right-margin = 15\mm
#(define fonts
(set-global-fonts
#:factor (/ staff-height pt 24 )
))
system-system-spacing.basic-distance = #36
score-system-spacing =
#'((basic-distance . 24)
(minimum-distance . 12)
(padding . 8)
(stretchability . 12))
}
However, for reasons I don't understand, the system on that second page is
squashed horizontally, as if the system could only stretch to fill a
portrait-oriented page. Also, the staves are too close together vertically,
with no vertical distance given.
Is there something I'm doing wrong with my layout or the file structure?
The first file is a portrait-format a3 sheet with over 40 voice parts; the
second should be a landscape-format a3 sheet with maybe 10 staves, both
scaled appropriately. So far, only the scaling and spacing on the first
file works right.
Thanks for the help,
A
