Re: Lilypond-book 2.6.0 Problem

[Mats Bengtsson]

Have you figured out how to do this yet?

It seems that many of us have modified the default configuration
of dvips and forgot that the default is to send the output directly
to the printer, not to save it to the file.

The instructions at
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.6/Documentation/user/out-www/lilypond/An-example-of-a-musicological-document.html
are still highly relevant, only that you need one extra flag to
dvips to make it save the output PostScript to file:

dvips -Ppdf -o -h lilybook.psfonts lilybook

Please also keep this mailing list for discussions specifically
related to the development versions (2.7.x) and use lilypond-user
for ordinary usage questions like this one.
