I have a couple of questions re lilypond before trying
it out if anyone
can help me.
- Can I force formatting and spacing such that there will *always* be 4
or 8 measures per print line?
I believe so. Here is the point in the manual that
explains horizontal
spacing.

- Can one change the type setting and format of the English chord
symbols? ( ie how one notates say C7+9 etc )
Yes

The manual is very well written. Here is a link to the main
documentation. I have a copy in pdf that I have open most of the time I
am typesetting music.

If you are using an earlier version:

- Is it fairly easy to integrate lilypond with databases?
Unfortunately, I have
no experience doing this.
Thanks
