+The TeXinfo command @code{pagesize} is on the TODO list for Lilypond 1.4.

This document assumes you have basic knowledge of GNU LilyPond and
La@TeX{} or texinfo.
These commands should be in the beginning of the document:

If you use @code{--outdir}, you should also @code{cd} to that directory
before running LaTeX or makeinfo.
