When I set the Giuliani 120 exercises a couple of years ago, I did it by 
using Lilypond render frames in Scribus, with each exercise as a 
separate ly score.

See attached, which is a Scribus file showing the first two exercises 
set in render frames (the Lilypond code is inside the render frames, 
right-click on the render frame and select Edit Source to see it), and 
the resulting PDF output.

You need Scribus 1.5 to open the sla file. Version 1.4 can't recognise it.
