RE: Frescobaldi creates the pdf but doesn't export it?

[Luca Danieli]

Dear all, 

thank you for your answers. I solved the problem but I don't really know how.

Originally, I downloaded the *.ly file from my drive online. The score is not produced if you just open the file, but you need to save the file again.

It seems to me that as soon as I have saved the file "from inside", it came to work!

Thanks

Luca

Hi -- yes, I've seen this happen a few times recently (on Windows). Although as far as I know, the file you're looking at in Frescobaldi is a temporary PDF file. I may be corrected by someone.

Having said that I'm not sure whether Frescobaldi always has the "working" folder you would expect... And one possibility of this occurring seems to be if the target file was open in another PDF reader (some -- Adobe for example -- locks the file. Very annoyingly. )

Hello all,

in these last 2 days I have been re-editing some scores of mine in lilypond.

One worked perfectly, while the second one worked fine as well but didn't export the pdf file of the score.

I mean that I can stream the pdf in Frescobaldi, but I cannot find the file in the relative path.

This is the building response:

Layout output to `Violin piece from Cist Tombs on Amorgos.ps'...
Converting to `./Violin piece from Cist Tombs on Amorgos.pdf'...
Success: compilation successfully completed
Completed successfully in 16.4".

but if I go to the path -> ./

nothing is there except for the *.ly file.

I am using lilypond 2.18.2 on Ubuntu 15.04

Cheers,

Luca
