To whom it may concern:
I apologize if this is a repeat query, however:
I want to be able to generate graphic musical examples without getting
it formatted on a giant paper-formatted .pdf or .png. I want to be
able to use this for input into documents of my choosing How do I
accomplish this?
If your example is on a single stave, you can invoke Lilypond with
lilypond -dpreview file.ly
and you will get completely borderless file.preview.pdf and
file.preview.png sized to fit the stave. Unfortunately this won't work
if your example occupies more than one stave - all you will get is the
first stave.
