Because the approach I took was to say I have measures of 3/4 but every
5 quarter-notes take the time of 3. As I said, you would probably want
it to print 5/4 as the key sig, which would require a little more work.

How did you try to generate a pdf? What version of denemo do you have,
and what version of LilyPond? Attached is the pdf I get by clicking
print.

If you didn't get it to print out, that is quite understandable - there
is another problem, not to do with the polymetrics...
