Maybe, your Noto Sans CJK font is OTC (OpenType Collection) font. https://www.google.com/get/noto/help/cjk/ If I understand correctly, Ghostscript cannot handle OTC font because it is new format. You can use `Region specific OTF subset' version Noto Sans CJK fonts because they are not OTC fonts. Or, you can use other Japanese fonts by the following commands. $ sudo apt-get install fonts-ipafont-mincho $ sudo apt-get install fonts-ipafont-gothic $ sudo apt-get install fonts-ipaexfont-mincho $ sudo apt-get install fonts-ipaexfont-gothic _______________________________________________ bug-lilypond mailing list bug-lilypond@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-lilypond
