Hello,

I am tentatively sticking my toe into the contributor waters, having long typeset music for friends to play. I have uploaded the PDFs of score and parts, but now I want to upload the source files, which are in GNU LilyPond. However, when I try to upload these as source files, I get an error message:

"Error: File must be in PDF, ZIP, MXL (MusicXML) or MSCZ (MuseScore) format and must be smaller than 250MB."

This is under "Add File", "New Edition", "Source Files". I have seen plenty of LilyPond scores as source files, so why this error? And how do I avoid it?

Many thanks,
Alasdair

So that filetype will need to be put into a ZIP for the system to accept the file.

Ah - thanks, that makes sense. I'll do that, then.
