Hi
I am new to lilypond, I am helping my church to
generate music
sheet in pdf
in order for them to practice in choir.
The original score is in nwc format, so I used
nwc2xml to convert it into musicxml, then I tried to load the
musicxml file into musescore and print the pdf. The pdf generated from
musescore is ok, but It has limited control on the layout. So I
turn to lilypond. I used muxiscml2ly (version 2.16.2) to convert to
lilypond file. It works great, the quality of the final pdf definitely better
than the pdf generated from musescore. but I found couple engraving
issue, I want to see if you can help. I attached musicxml file, lilypond file
and pdf file for your reference.
First, I found hyphens are engraved for 3 times. see the 3 hythons between
"He’ll" and "forgive" and also lyrics
of measure 11 and measure 12. this seems to
be my major issue so far.
Second, This could be muxiscml2ly
convertion issue, see "Duet Gently" and "Quartet" are printed for 3
times. I checked the generated lilypond file, looks like extra voices
are added. I was able to fix this by remove following lines from lilypond
file.
\context Voice = "PartPOneVoiceOne" { \voiceOne
\PartPOneVoiceOne }
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "PartPOneVoiceOne"
\PartPOneVoiceOneLyricsOne
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "PartPOneVoiceOne"
\PartPOneVoiceOneLyricsTwo
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "PartPOneVoiceOne"
\PartPOneVoiceOneLyricsThree
\context Voice = "PartPOneVoiceTwo" { \voiceThree
\PartPOneVoiceTwo }
\context Voice = "PartPTwoVoiceTwo" { \voiceThree
\PartPTwoVoiceTwo }
Thanks
