Publishing a book with lilypond

[Rodolfo Zitellini]

Dear list,
I will be doing my thesis (a transcription of eighteenth-century
keyboard music) all with lilypond. I am also contracting with a music
publisher to have it published. Since this publisher lets the editor
(me) do all the layout I am pressing them to do the book all in
lilypond. AFAIK they do not have a "real" house style, and every
editor adopts his style in his edition (quite unprofessional, I
know...)
So I am wondering: has anyone experience in publishing his works
trough a professional publisher? Does anyone have tips on pagination,
layout, margins, etc... for a "real" printed book?

Thanks!

Rodolfo
