\begin_layout Abstract
While LilyPond itself supports the display of title, author information,
footnotes, endnotes, etc., its primary focus is on music typesetting.
For text typesetting, other programs are generally better suited.

You can use any LaTeX-based LyX layout and use the regular preview and

code through LilyPond-book for you.
