Lilypond Layout Errors
When typesetting a Lilypond file (MuseScore made it), I sometimes get things like:
:152:2: error: syntax error, unexpected \layout
\layout {\context {\Score \consists Span_bar_engraver}}
error: unknown escaped string: `\Score'
\layout {\context {
\Score \consists Span_bar_engraver}}
/Applications/Lilypond/LilyPond.app/Contents/Resources/share/lilypond/current/ly/init.ly:73:66: error: syntax error, unexpected $end
(ly:parser-error parser (_ "expected error, but none found"))))
error: failed files
I don't understand much about it, but scaling (in MuseScore) sorts the problem. Can anyone advice? I don't know it it's a bug, but I think there should be something implemented to avoid the error?

If you really want to go the lilypond way, I would advice exporting musicXML from MuseScore and using musicXML2ly (provided by lilypond) to get the lilypond file. The output may be cleaner.

I'm not at all abandoning MuseScore - just testing things. Regarding this layout problem, what should we do for MuseScore (if there is anything)?
I don't think there's a package for musicXML2ly available.

By 'package', I mean DMG.

MusicXML2ly is delivered with the Lilypond package (exe, dmg, ...). Check out the docs.
