Every time I compile a .ly file using lilypond for Windows10 it generates too many files. It outputs a pdf for the whole piece (which is what I need), and a separate pdf for each line of the piece + a .eps file for each one of those pdfs + some additional log files.

I have tried compiling both using cmd and double clicking on the .ly file. On command line, I have tried adding --pdf, --loglevel=NONE, --output=FILE, -fpdf but nothing seems to help

lilypond -fpdf --loglevel=NONE --output=pathToPDF pathToLyFile

Maybe you can use the flag `-dno-print-pages` – Hackerman Jun 24 '19 at 16:30
Just tried both '-dno-print-pages' and '-dprint-pages', but it still produces all the clutter – niv Jun 24 '19 at 16:37
