Slightly off topic: I am trying to get umlaute in a Lilypond Lyx file,
e.g.
\markup {
\vspace #1
  \fontsize #1 {
Sakura, sakura, der Frühlingshimmel,
     }
}
The Umlaute ue is not displayed.
I have tried various proposals made in the internet,
but had no success -converting in a text editor into UTF8 before
importing, using octal code ..

Could somebody give me a solution?

Wolfgang

Recommended is to use a text editor which changes the coding to UTF8. I
used jedit for it.
However, inserting the text in the ERT of my lilypond lyx file did not
help:
The Umlaute (diacritics) e.g. ü = ue are not shown in the pdf output;
instead the vowel is not shown at all, no space:
Hügel (Huegel) is shown as Hgel.


Wolfgang, are you sure you are using a font that in fact includes the
proper glyph for the UTF8-addressed umlaut? If the pdf simply skips it,
there are a good chances it is a font-related issue.


Cheers,

Thanks, Stefano, I used new century schoolbook and most of the other one ( tried AE Palatino Bitstream Bookman Utopia Zapf .. )
but there are others not yet available. Which one would be suitable?
