Yes, and the lilyjazz package README clearly states so. > Since LilyPond 2.19.12 > it’s possible to use several notation fonts (including LilyJAZZ) without > having to install lyp or similar things. Of course, but the point of using lyp is not support for custom fonts in various versions of lilypond but rather ease of installation of said fonts. Using custom fonts, even post 2.19.12, involves more than soliciting a copy of the font files by email. Any custom font also needs to be copied into the lilypond fonts directory, which might be located at any of a number of possible locations, depending on how lilypond itself was installed. And in addition there's also the associated .ly file with a bunch of glue code, which you need to copy around. Not terribly hard, but arguably not the best way to spend an afternoon, for a lilypond newbie. Whereas installing with lyp is a matter of doing the following: 1. install lyp <https://github.com/noteflakes/lyp#installation> 2. `lyp install lilypond` (if you don't already have lilypond on your machine) 3. `lyp install lilyjazz` 4. use it.
