Thanks David and Ming. The unicode value of the special punctuation is \u3002 ( http://www.unicodemap.org/details/0x3002 ) Jun Date: Thu, 2 May 2013 17:06:40 -0700 From: tsan...@rogers.com Subject: Re: Lyrics and Punctuations Alignment Issue? To: david.nales...@gmail.com CC: lilypond-user@gnu.org
Hi David, Here is the .ly file that generates the png file in previous email. This file is UTF-8 encoded. Thank for looking the solution,Ming.

Please refer to lyric d & f : correspondent Chinese character to d is ok but the Chinese character at f is off a bit. Is it possible to make f the same as d? The difference at d the '," is single byte while at f the "o" is double byte. Thank you for your help.Ming. I've worked with multiple byte characters before (with difficulty), and I think I could help. The way I dealt with them was to create a list of characters to recognize. (For reference: http://www.mail-archive.com/lilypond-user@gnu.org/msg68583/example_%284%29.ly) The method isn't pretty** In order for me to help, though, I'll need to see the file that created your image. What are the UTF-8 encodings of the special punctuation characters? **At one point, I was referred to the functions documented at http://www.gnu.org/software/guile-gnome/docs/glib/html/Unicode-Manipulation.html#Unicode-Manipulation, which look like they would ease working with such characters. However, I was never able to figure out how to get these functions available to LilyPond. Does anyone reading this know how it would be done?
