Hi, Dieter-- I don't think the clef change has anything to do with this problem.
Your file has 64 bars. In clefchange.pmx you specified 5 bars per system, which means 13 systems. In clefchange7.pmx you specified 3 pages and 20 systems, which would average 3.2 bars per system. So with the same page width, the first one will be way more crowded horizontally than the second. The first one does work if I uncomment the 277 mm page width command, and then produces good spacing spread over 13 systems. But with the default width of 185 mm, the postscript crashes. I can't say exactly where or why, but trust me, you wouldn't have liked how it looked if it did go through. Your second file, with 3.2 bars per default system, worked fine, and produced an OK score spread over 20 systems. Even if I don't have a precise technical answer for why the postscript crashed, the moral is simple: don't squeeze your score into too little horizontal space. --Don -----Original Message----- From: TeX-Music <[email protected]> On Behalf Of Dieter Sent: Friday, November 20, 2020 2:55 AM To: Werner Icking Music Archive <[email protected]> Subject: [Tex-music] clefchange at page break Hi Don, I observed, that a clefchange combined with an (automatic pmx-) line- and page-break may lead to a postscript error (see clefchange.pmx) . When I force the same line- and page-break there is no postscript error (see clefchangel7.pmx). The only change is an L7P2 command before measure 150. Example comes from Mondschein-Sonata.
