Re: Lilypond and Latex on Windows

[andrea valle]

Well, in order to avoid possible confusion, I'm not an expert at all.
On MacOSX I'm not able to see the dvi too, but the output on ps is ok 
for me. I also used dvipdf instead of dvips to convert directly to pdf 
the dvi. I made only very simple tests, but it worked.

Actually I discovered that I have two distributions of latex, one 
installed by the editor (TexShop) the other probably shipped with the 
OS.
When I invoked via terminal the second was called, which is 
conisderably older and out of date than the other. I update class style 
by hand in this distro and solved the problem of having the class 
files.
It could be so also with your editor.
