Hey, Michael!

As the saying goes, “Welcome to the ‘Pond!”

Hi all,

I looked through the archives, but didn’t see this issue addressed. My apologies if I somehow missed it.

I am relatively new to Lilypond. Everything I have coded seems to have been rendered successfully in my pdf reader. However, the horizontal width of the reader is constrained, such that only 3/4 of what has been coded shows in the pdf window.

Is this a Lilypond issue?  That is, is there language I can use in my file that will render everything in my pdf?  Or is this instead an issue with my pdf reader (I’ve tried adjusting every setting I can think of, without any success).

Hard to say exactly what the problem or solution is without seeing a sample (both input file and output pdf) of what you’ve tried. Would you mind supplying something that we can use to diagnose the situation? There’s a lot of very knowledgeable folks on this list. So, hopefully we can get to the bottom of this quickly so you can enjoy the fruits of your labor.

That's totally true, we need more information.
Is this with *every* score you produce? The first suspicion is that you introduced some errors that prevent LilyPond from breaking lines, which typically leads to the music "running off the page".

What about a file like that:

{ \repeat unfold 128 c'4 }

?

Best,
