Re: PNG output with Lilypond?

[Mats Bengtsson]

We have seen this question often now, isn't it time to add a flag to ly2dvi
(or add a new script ly2fig) to produce a .png or whatever graphics format?
Of course, it should not include any page header or footer but it's not 
clear
to me if it should include other header information.

As others have explained, the current workaround is to make a dummy
(in case you're target document isn't done with texi, latex or html)
document, run lilypond-book and use the lily-xxxxxx.png or .eps files.
