Re: Layout integrating LaTeX and music

[Patrick Schmidt]

Thank you Helge,

the baseline of the lilypond fragment is now identical with the letter's 
baseline. Have you got any idea why there is so much horizontal space in 
between the round brackets and the fragment: (     fragment   )?

All the best,

PLS

Hi Ole,

I don*t know which platform you use (Windows, Linux or MacOs)

If you have a Mac than it should work as follows:

Open the terminal then type:

cd /
cd /Users/Ole/ %(your user name)
vi .profile    %(editor)

i              %(insert)

PATH=$PATH:"/Applications/LilyPond.app/Contents/Resources/bin/"
export PATH     %(set the path)

:wq            %(to save and quit)

Now you have to run a script cslled lilypond-book. It is described in the 
manual.

If you use the terminal then enter the following commands (but not the 
comments):

mkdir -p out/   %this creates a new file called "out"

lilypond-book --output=out --psfonts yourfile.tex %name of your latex-file

cd out %go to the file "out"

latex yourfile %name of your latex-file instead od "yourfile"

dvips -o -Ppdf -h yourfile.psfonts yourfile %substitute "yourfile"
ps2pdf yourfile.ps

It makes your life easier if you install a script in your latex-editor. I use 
Texshop and there is a little plugin called Lilypond-LaTeX. You can find it 
here:

Hope this helps,

PLS
