Comment #14 on issue 1691 by address@hidden: Ugly bars in
PDF documents
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=1691
OK - I've done some more looking at this, following up James's work
documented in Issue 1015. FWIW, music without instrument names does
not produce black bars with
@lilypond[verbatim,quote,line-width=15.984\cm], but does with a line
width of 15.985. With the lower figure, any added instrument name
does indeed push the image out and again produces black bars.
However, if we were to work to a guideline of "Where quoted musical
images exceed one line in length, use line-width=15.9\cm. If
instrument names are used, this will need to be reduced to avoid black
bars in the right margin of the PDF output."
(info "(texinfo) Overfull hboxes")
states at the end
For what overfull boxes you have, however, TeX will print a large,
ugly, black rectangle beside the line that contains the overfull hbox
unless told otherwise. This is so you will notice the location of the
problem if you are correcting a draft.
To prevent such a monstrosity from marring your final printout, write
the following in the beginning of the Texinfo file on a line of its
own,
before the address@hidden' command:
