These templates are for use with `lilypond-book`. If you’re not familiar with this program, please refer to Running `lilypond-book`.

### 3.6.1 LaTeX

You can include LilyPond fragments in a LaTeX document.

>     \documentclass[]{article}

>     \begin{document}

>     Normal LaTeX text.

>     \begin{lilypond}
>     \relative {
>       a'4 b c d
>     }
>     \end{lilypond}

>     More LaTeX text, and options in square brackets.

>     \begin{lilypond}[fragment,relative=2,quote,staffsize=26,verbatim]
>     d4 c b a
>     \end{lilypond}
>     \end{document}

### 3.6.2 Texinfo

You can include LilyPond fragments in Texinfo; in fact, this entire manual is written in Texinfo.

>     \input texinfo
>     @ifnottex
>     @node Top
>     @top
>     @end ifnottex

>     Texinfo text

>     @lilypond
>     \relative {
>       a4 b c d
>     }
>     @end lilypond

>     More Texinfo text, and options in brackets.

>     @lilypond[verbatim,fragment,ragged-right]
>     d4 c b a
>     @end lilypond

>     @bye

### 3.6.3 html

>     <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
>     <!-- header_tag -->
>     <HTML>
>     <body>

>     <p>
>     Documents for lilypond-book may freely mix music and text.  For
>     example,
>     <lilypond>
>     \relative {
>       a'4 b c d
>     }
>     </lilypond>
>     </p>

>     <p>
>     Another bit of lilypond, this time with options:

>     <lilypond fragment quote staffsize=26 verbatim>
>     a4 b c d
>     </lilypond>
>     </p>

>     </body>
>     </html>

### 3.6.4 xelatex

    \documentclass{article}
    \usepackage{ifxetex}
    \ifxetex
    %xetex specific stuff
    \usepackage{xunicode,fontspec,xltxtra}
    \setmainfont[Numbers=OldStyle]{Times New Roman}
    \setsansfont{Arial}
    \else
    %This can be empty if you are not going to use pdftex
    \usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
    \usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
    \usepackage{mathptmx}%Times
    \usepackage{helvet}%Helvetica
    \fi
    %Here you can insert all packages that pdftex also understands
    \usepackage[ngerman,finnish,english]{babel}
    \usepackage{graphicx}

    \begin{document}
    \title{A short document with LilyPond and xelatex}
    \maketitle

    Normal \textbf{font} commands inside the \emph{text} work,
    because they \textsf{are supported by \LaTeX{} and XeteX.}
    If you want to use specific commands like \verb+\XeTeX+, you
    should include them again in a \verb+\ifxetex+ environment.
    You can use this to print the \ifxetex \XeTeX{} command \else
    XeTeX command \fi which is not known to normal \LaTeX .

    In normal text you can easily use LilyPond commands, like this:

    \begin{lilypond}
    {a2 b c'8 c' c' c'}
    \end{lilypond}

    \noindent
    and so on.

    The fonts of snippets set with LilyPond will have to be set from
    inside
    of the snippet.  For this you should read the AU on how to use
    lilypond-book.

    \selectlanguage{ngerman}
    Auch Umlaute funktionieren ohne die \LaTeX -Befehle, wie auch alle
    anderen
    seltsamen Zeichen: __ ______, wenn sie von der Schriftart
    unterst__tzt werden.
    \end{document}
