In markup, you can use \dynamic to use the dynamics characters. However, only a small part of the alphabet is provided, as it is normally only used for actual dynamics; what you want is not normal practice, and would come out looking like the attached image.

I seem to be helping less than I used to; not sure why. I've tried a few times recently to figure out how to make what would effectively be a markup in dynamic script, with no success. I've looked pretty extensively on the LilyPond site, as well as in the LSR and the email archives. I'm currently running LilyPond 2.24.0 and Frescobaldi 3.2 (still having problems figuring out how to install 3.3) under Linux/Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS. I currently would like to add sempre ff e ben marcato in dynamic font. I can do a markup using \bold and \italic, but it's not quite the same as the dynamic font. Am I missing a simple way to accomplish this? I appreciate any help on this. All the best, Ralph ______ Ralph Palmer Seattle USA (he, him, his) palmer.r.vio...@gmail.com
