I looked in the documents and in other places online for help and
did not find anything on how to split a score across two sheets, so
Iam hoping the list can provide some insight. What I am looking to
do is to easily split a score across two sheets much like you can
make a score use two pages instead of one with a \pageBreak at the
appropriate place. For example, the tune Cabar Feidh is much easier
to read from a single sheet if printed landscape as opposed to
printing portrait. This is just because some of the bars are "more
busy" with doublings and throws etc. than others making certain
parts a bit crowded when printing this tune in portrait
orientation. I realize I could create two separate scores, one for
each sheet, but that becomes cumbersome if you ever decide to
display the tune differently.
So I was wondering if there was an easy way to split a score across
two sheets when printing so the tune essentially puts the first two
bars on the left sheet and the last two bars of each line on the
right sheet of an open book?
I'm afraid I don't understand the distinction you make between page
and sheet. Apparently \pageBreak doesn't do what you want, so please
clarify how what you want differs.
