Well, why would the sans-serif font be TakaoPGothic in the first place?
I think we should be using the same default fonts on every installation.
We don't use any particular font for sans-serif and monospace. LilyPond
simply calls the OS's default here.
Which is something I'd like to raise (once more?): Would it be an option
to find suitable complementing fonts here, ship them with LilyPond and
make them the default? I think chances that a default sans-serif is
anywhere near visually suitable for a LilyPond score are pretty small.
Usually they are chosen for very different purposes (i.e. clean screen
display for user interfaces). While I think DejaVu Sans (default here)
is a good font for its purposes it's really ugly when used in a LilyPond
score.
