I'm working on Carnatic music scores that involve complex time signatures, that will require modified bar lines

Pattern for barlines for: 8/4

beats: 1 2 3 4  (dashed bar here) 5, 6 (Dotted Bar) 7, 8 (double bar)

Here's one bar of actual score

g16( f) d8 ees( ees) d16( c d8) bes16[( d c bes    \bar "dashed"
a g]) a[( bes c] d[ c d])   \bar ":"   
g8( f16) ees8( d16 c d)     \bar "||"

Is there a way to automate these barlines?

as seen on Super User - Search for 'Super User'
In Lilypond the paper size can be set to A4, A5, Letter and so forth. However I have only a short song, and I want to embed it lateron. Therefore the output from Lilypond must be cropped somehow. Is there a possibility to let Lilypond itself do this? Some setting to the \paper{} block, perhaps? >>> More
