Subject: | [REPOST w/update] funny "doublings" in PostScript output |
Date: | Mon, 1 Dec 2003 22:03:58 -0500 |
Hello, all:Just trying this again -- don't recall seeing a reply, plus I've got some new info (inserted into original)
___________________________I've been playing around with the output from lilypond, putting it through ps2ps, and then editing it in Illustrator, and I've found something weird: many objects are doubled, apparently for no reason.
I noticed it first with slurs and ties, though because of the complexity of those graphics, I figured it was necessary. However, each clef element and accidental in the key signature is doubled! Noteheads and regular (i.e., note-attached) accidentals don't seem to be doubled, nor do articulations, barlines, or anything else I've run into so far.
Any thoughts on why this might be so? Is it a byproduct of the ps2ps process or something in the way lilypond generates the output? [UPDATE: I have proven that it's *not* a byproduct of ps2ps, as the ps output directly from Lilypond/TeX also has the items doubled -- even though Illustrator can't see the embedded fonts, it shows the PostScript item(s) with handle(s).]
Just curious, Kieren.
