Re: svg from LilypondTool?

[Bertalan Fodor (LilyPondTool)]

Oh, I was confused by the lilypond doc (seems buggy in this part - if I want svg output, why doesn't it use the svg backend automatically?)
The correct way to generate an svg is

%lilypond -dbackend=svg %buffer

That is really brilliant, using Lilypond and LilypondTool is

Just a slight problem -

When I use %lilypond -fsvg %buffer in the console I am

getting a .ps output and no .pdf output now, which

makes sense to me. However I can't seem to find

any .svg output file.

Should the console should be giving

me a message like "Layout output to 'filename.svg'?"

I have Lilypond version 2.12.0.

Thanks again,

Gerard

Yes.

See
http://lilypondtool.organum.hu/fileadmin/lilypondtool/docs/ch03s03.html Running LilyPond with custom parameters

So you have 2 options:
- in the LilyPond console you can use %lilypond -fsvg %buffer to process the file to svg.
