Hi all,
I'm aware there are no hard and fast rules and typesetting is a profession and art, so no universal solutions exist. I am, however, finding difficulty in managing the vertical space in Latex with Gregorio Tex in a document with a number of chant scores and am looking for a brief description of how others handle vertical space between chants or between chant and paragraph text, or pointers to a document outlining best practices in managing vertical space in general.
What latex structures or commands do you use to lay out the page? Or do you know of a good tutorial elsewhere?
I'm not at all clear on how Gregorio Tex manages the vertical space around a chant, or what LaTeX thinks the chant score "is" as an object, in terms of before and after spacing. Is it a letter, a paragraph, a box, a graphics object of some kind? I'm getting a lot of bad page breaks with the default style settings. I'm trying to keep a light hand in forcing changes as I suppose the general conventions of typesetting know better than I do.
That's pretty vague, I'm sure. Thanks for whatever you can share.
Rob
