Hello Jos, this code compiled right in version 2.8.0 (based on the example of Polymetric Notation).
%%%% SNIPPET tsMarkup =\markup { \number { \column { "4" { \note #"2" #0.75 } } } } { \override Staff.TimeSignature #'stencil = #ly:text-interface::print \override Staff.TimeSignature #'text = #tsMarkup \time 4/2 c'2 c'4 c'4 } %%%% END SNIPPET I guess for you to use an external font, like Maestro (or you may find other that would work too), you can do it like this: %%%% SNIPPET tsMarkup =\markup { \override #'(font-name . "Maestro") { \column { "4" "H" } } } { \override Staff.TimeSignature #'stencil = #ly:text-interface::print \override Staff.TimeSignature #'text = #tsMarkup \time 4/2 c'2 c'4 c'4 } %%%% END SNIPPET I guees you'll figure out that "H" is the corresponding key stroke for the symbol.
