If you want to add pictures of music to a document, you can simply do
it the way you would do with other types of pictures. The pictures
adjusted to match the layout of your document.
This procedure may be applied to La@TeX{}, @code{html} or Texinfo
-documents. A tutorial on using lilypond-book is in @ref{Integrating

+Some texts contain music examples. These texts are musicological
+treatises, songbooks or manuals like this. Such texts can be made by
+hand, simply by importing a PostScript figure into the word processor.
+However, there is an automated procedure to reduce the amount of work
+involved HTML, La@TeX{}, and Texinfo documents.
+
+A script called @code{lilypond-book} will extract the music fragments,
