Hi.I've been looking for a music notation program that supports non- latin text. Finale and Sibelius are a hack and need to be re-written, so I'm looking elsewhere. As a computer geek, lilypond is somewhat appealing!
So, I've tried it out, but I've got a few issues. Specifically, updating the pdf doesn't seem to work correctly. When I typeset a file, the change does not show up in the pdf if it was already displayed. It seems that I have to close the file, and re-open the pdf manually. Is this a known issue? Could it be because I'm using non-latin text?
My system is Mac OS X 10.4.2, lillypond 2.6.4-1, and I'm using Preview to view the pdf (do I have a choice?)
How can I trace this down, please? And, does anyone else know if lillypond will work with non-english text? I'd attach a sample file, but I don't know if the list will accept attachments.
Thanks, Markian ----Early to bed and early to rise, makes a man stupid and blind in the eyes.
