Re: in-line note font elements in lilypond-book + latex?

Hi Mats,

as usual, your advice is invaluable.  I am getting somewhere, just not
quite there yet.

The first part of the example works fine.  The second produces three
pages, mostly empty.  It seems that the output of the non-fragment is
a big chunk, the bounding box is something like 800x600.

I can do something with the first example.  However, it requires me to
suppress the staff if I only want the note.  I grabbed the below from
the lilypond manual (Rhythm section).  Because the staff is
transparent, but still occupies space, I need to play around a bit
with the bounding box, though.  This can be done in Latex, but if
there is a less fragile solution, it may be worth to get it written
down.

\begin{lilypond}
\score {
\relative c' { d4 }
  \layout {
    ragged-right = ##t
    indent=0\mm
    \context {
      \Score
        \remove "Bar_number_engraver"
    }
    \context {
      \Staff
        \remove "Clef_engraver"
        \override StaffSymbol #'transparent = ##t
        \override TimeSignature #'transparent = ##t
        \override BarLine #'transparent = ##t
        \consists "Pitch_squash_engraver"
    }
  }
}
\end{lilypond}

Thanks,
Marcus
