different page sizes / systems as single files / lilypond-book

[Henning Hraban Ramm]

(using 2.14 or 2.15.8 on OSX Intel)

We’re in the process of re-inventing ConTeXt’s LilyPond support  
(similar to lilypond-book, but simpler and with ConTeXt instead of  
LaTeX).
We try to solve page breaking of bigger scores.

If a score begins mid-page, e.g. below a title, we would like to tell  
LilyPond a smaller first page size to trigger page breaking.

Probably even better would be, if we could get single output files  
(EPS, PDF) for every system, include all of them serially and use  
TeX’s page breaking mechanism.
-dbackend=eps tells us the number of systems in foo-systems.count, and  
AFAICR it used to give single-system files as foo-#.pdf, but ATM we  
just get identical foo-1.pdf and foo.pdf

Is either possible? I couldn’t find fitting options.

Does lilypond-book support such page breaking? Does it support base  
line correction of inline snippets, and how?
