   I see no reason why there should be a difference.

There is a small shift left and up that is different from lilypondfile, which
is what I was previously using. I can compensate in latex.

   lilypond -dbackend=eps -daux-files=#f file.ly

   should be what you are after...

Perfect, except it still generates a PDF file, which I don't need and I could
not find an command-line option to prevent the PDF from being created.
But that's what a Makefile is for: I just delete the PDF.

Thanks
