Enabling point and click
Point and click functionality is enabled by default when creating PDF or SVG files.
The point and click links enlarge the output files significantly. For reducing the size of these (and PS) files, point and click may be switched off by issuing
\pointAndClickOff
in a .ly file. Point and click may be explicitly enabled with
\pointAndClickOn
Alternately, you may disable point and click with a command-line option:
lilypond -dno-point-and-click file.ly
Note: You should always turn off point and click in any LilyPond files to be distributed to avoid including path information about your computer in the PDF file, which can pose a security risk.
