Hi Rachel,

default LilyPond drops the glissando-stencil in very tight situations. See:

{
  \override Glissando.after-line-breaking =
    #(lambda (grob) (write (ly:grob-property grob 'stencil)))
  \acciaccatura { e''16 f''\glissando }
  e''8
}

Terminal displays '()

Though, my procedure printing the bows relies on a stencil being
present. Thus nothing happens.
This dependance bugs me anyway, so I'll have another look in the evening.

For now you could lengthen the glissando with:

\override Glissando.springs-and-rods = #ly:spanner::set-spacing-rods
\override Glissando.minimum-length = 2 %% adjust  to taste.


Cheers,
  Harm
