The fonts in 2.4 belonged to the European Computer Modern family, i.e.
a version of cmr extended with all Latin1 characters.
For lyrics, the bold-narrow version was used, but for text scripts
and titling it was ecmr as far as I can remember, so it should be
identical to cmr.

Karl -
Thanks for the pointers.
I have many 2.4 scores with default font text tediously sized and
positioned, so would like to use, in 2.8, exactly the 2.4 default font.
I've been unable to determine what that is. It looks very close to, but not
exactly, cmr10 (roman upright medium).

In 2.4, the only(!?) available fonts were the TeX fonts. In 2.8, you
have access to all the fonts that are available
in your other windows programs. However, I'm not sure how to install
the TeX fonts, so that
they are found via the "Pango library" that LilyPond now uses.
The question has popped up a number of times on the mailing list, but
it seems that nobody has managed to do it, even though I'm sure
it's fully possible if you know how it works.
...
The most common TeX fonts are available as type1 fonts, see:

Follow the links at the bottom.
(Which font was used by lilypond 2.4, was it computer modern?)
If you are after the computer modern, get:
