I guess lilypond-book would perfectly do the job if I could manage to
get this font for the font lyrics.
I tried
\override Score . LyricText #'font-name = #"texnansi-anttr"
but this didn't work.
As far as I have understood this it is fairly easy to use otf fonts with
lilypond, there is a part in the documentation, I don't just remember the exact
part but you will find it, it is about using other fonts (in the example times
and arial, I think). Just insert this kind of line into the head of your files
and you will get the font globally converted.
With #(ly:font-config-display-fonts) you get all fonts that can be used by
lilypond in an easy way of inserting the line:
\override #'(font-name . "Warnock Pro" -- change the name to something you
have. Lilypond is looking for fonts in the fonts direcotry via pango, so the normal way
you install fonts on your debian should do it.
Since you use Antykwa torunska (is that right) they distribution also includes
otf fonts of the same font. Just pick them from there tex path and copy them to
the font directory, run the font update mechanism and it should show in the
list given from the first command in my mail.
hope this helpes you.

It can be pretty useful. I might write a page for the docs regarding batch processing. The main problem, of course, is that this is OS dependent. If I were to do that, where would be the best place to put it? Two places come to mind -- first, 4.1.3 might be expanded to suggest using separate files for each part in an ensemble. That's the main use I have for batch processing -- twenty music files for each instrument which are \include-d in instrumental parts and similarly combined in a conductor's score. I'll normally run that with a for-do-done loop. (Is this set up explained in the manual? I think it was once, but it might have moved.) The other obvious place is in section 13.1, since that's where I went first to see if there were options to help with log files and the like. This is my preference. Experience tells me that different commands operate differently, too. For example, 'convert-ly -e *ly' works as expected. 'lilypond *ly' works, but with a huge load on the machine, like it's processing all files concurrently.

well, I used it with a former version of lilypond to get the same font
for lyrics as in latex. I used a pretty old version of "lilypond -k"
which kept the tex output files where I could then replace the font with
the desired tex font.
See also my other post from today where I ask how I could get a font

I tried

but this didn't work.
I've on my (debian) system
/usr/share/texmf-tetex/fonts/tfm/public/antt/texnansi-anttr.tfm
which can be used by latex, but apparently not by lilypond.

Tiago-
The solution to my problem proposed by Trevor yesterday seems to work
with your example (using rather extreme values):
\version "2.11.17"
<<{g'2}\\{
\stemUp
\once \override Beam #'positions = #'(-2.9 . -0.8)
g8[ d'] f'[ d']
}\\{ \stemDown g2}>>
Lily does still complain of clashing note columns.
If you're happy with the layout of stems and beams, then there's a
magic switch to insert at the Score-level context and override the
clashing note column warnings.
%%% BEGIN %%%
\version "2.11.16"
\new Score \with {
\override NoteColumn #'ignore-collision = ##t
} {
\new Staff <<
{g'2}\\{
\stemUp
\once \override Beam #'positions = #'(-2.9 . -0.8)
g8[ d'] f'[ d']
}\\{ \stemDown g2}
>>
}

You have the braces around your music in the wrong place. The \clef,
