# Musical Notation

Dblatex does not itself present musical notation. Of course, images of musical scores can be incorporated into dblatex output as can any other sort of images. For a more comprehensive solution which better integrates the typesetting of text with musical notation the LilyPond project () provides a facility for including musical notation within DocBook documents. LilyPond provides a program, `lilypond-book`, that pre-processes DocBook documents containing LilyPond musical notation and which can automatically invoke `dblatex` to produce PDFs integrating musical notation with text.

Information regards `lilypond-book` is, at present, found in LilyPond's Usage manual, the Running lilypond-book chapter, the Integrating music and text section.
