Re: Lilypond Windows - missing text fonts
When I run this at the command line in Windows 10: lilypond -dshow-available-fonts ...I get a slew of fonts. What are you doing that shows that LilyPond is not finding fonts? Do you have a small example input file that would display the problem? I'm no Windows font expert so I don't know how much I can help you, but that's a start. -- Knute Snortum On Tue, Jun 8, 2021 at 1:38 AM Tapani Simojoki wrote: > > Am i the only one with this problem? > > On Thursday, 29 April 2021, 11:01:04 BST, Tapani Simojoki > wrote: > > > Ever since I upgraded to 2.20, my Windows installation of Lilypond has failed > to detect most of the text fonts installed on my computer.

Hi Group,
I recently switched to MAC. Unfortnuately there seeem to be issues with
the fonts?
e.g. - I'd like to use Calluna - which is installed and I can use it in

Re: openLilyLib and text fonts
There are two different issues here: Firstly, the oll package defaults
to "serif"/"sans-serif"/"monospace" which are the lilypond defaults
onlky for the svg backend. Stealing from scm/fonts.scm (in the lilypond
distribution) suggest the following changes that indeed seem to use the
proper fonts:

I'll also prepare a pull request so this won't be an issue in the future.
Secondly, the typesetting of the lyrics apparently is influenced by the
spacing of the chosen notation font (and why wouldn't it...) However,
that gap around the lyric tie seems to be specific to profondo. Maybe
you can find some formatting tweaks to fix this or use another notation
font. (If I remember correctly, profondo is just an adaptation of – a
nowadays pretty outdated version of – bravura anyway, so that might be
worth a look if you're after that specific look.)

openLilyLib and text fonts
Hi!
I'm using openLilyLib to change the notation font of my lilypond scores. The
problem is: when I change the notation font, the text font is automatically
changed to a font that I don't know what it is.
Default:
\version "2.20.0"
\header {
title = "Title"
composer = "Composer"
}
<< \relative c' { c2 c c c c1 ^\markup{ \roman roman } ^\markup{ \sans sans }
^\markup{ \typewriter typewriter } }
\addlyrics { This is~a ly -- ric } >>
With new notation font:
\version "2.20.0"
\include "oll-core/package.ily"
\loadPackage notation-fonts
\useNotationFont "profondo"
\header {
title = "Title"
composer = "Composer"
}
<< \relative c' { c2 c c c c1 ^\markup{ \roman roman } ^\markup{ \sans sans }
^\markup{ \typewriter typewriter } }
\addlyrics { This is~a ly -- ric } >>
Trying to solve this, I forced lilypond to keep the default text fonts, but I
notice that the lyric tie is not positioned properly.
\version "2.20.0"
\include "oll-core/package.ily"
\loadPackage notation-fonts
\useNotationFont \with {
roman = "TeXGyre Schola"
sans = "TeXGyre Heros"
typewriter = "TeXGyre Cursor"
} "profondo"
\header {
title = "Title"
composer = "Composer"
}
<< \relative c' { c2 c c c c1 ^\markup{ \roman roman } ^\markup{ \sans sans }
^\markup{ \typewriter typewriter } }
\addlyrics { This is~a ly -- ric } >>
So, why the text font is automatically changed? And why the lyric tie is not
well positioned? Is there a solution?
Thanks.

Re: Changing Text Fonts
Matthew,
If Kieren is right about the font format, you might try using a free online
TTF-to-OTF converter on the font file you'd like to use. Other than that, it
looks like your syntax is correct. You could also change one of the main
document fonts to be the one you are trying to use.

Re: Changing Text Fonts
The example below does not work
To my knowledge, Lilypond has difficulty — i.e., fails completely —
with older Mac OS True Type (.ttf) fonts, and Baghdad is one of
those [at least on my machine].
Being an old Mac OS TTF per se is not a problem. A font must have a
Unicode cmap so that lilypond can use it – to be more precise,
FreeType must be able to synthesize a Unicode cmap. The library does
this for easy cases like Mac Roman encoding, IIRC, but it doesn't
apply complicated encoding mappings.
In case of Baghdad.ttf (which I just downloaded from the internet),
the font is lying. While it has a Unicode cmap, it is completely
wrong, mapping the Arabic characters to Latin code points. Putting
the font into a place where fontconfig can find it, I get the attached
result while compiling the following
\header {
title = \markup {
\override #'(font-name . Baghdad)
This my Masterpiece
}
}
{ c'' }
Attached is a picture of the Font Book application on my Mac. How
do I know the exact name of the font-name that should be used in
the ly file? Could this differ from what I see in the FontBook?
The name in the “Full Name” field of FontBook is, I believe, the one
you should use.
In case of doubt, call
lilypond -dshow-available-fonts 21 | less
on the command line and search for the font file. For example, on my
GNU/Linux box, I get
family Baghdad
Baghdad:style=Regular
If you want more precise information, try
fc-list | less
This time, I get
/home/wl/.fonts/Baghdad.ttf: Baghdad:style=Regular
BTW, the above output also shows the directories searched by
fontconfig.
Also, I usually like to increase the kerning of the Title. Is this
possible?
I don’t believe so.
You probably don't mean kerning but the spacing between the glyphs in
a title, right? You can manually insert small horizontal whitespace
between the title characters, using e.g.
H = \markup { \hspace #0.5 }
{
c''^\markup { foo }
c''^\markup { \concat { f \H o \H o } }
}

Re: Text fonts
Stan, As it stands, LilyPond doesn't (yet) associate condensed, extended, medium, semi-bold, black, etc. variants with the normal italic, bold, and bold-italic variants in the font family. Thus, the condensed variants are used with the name Vollkorn Condensed. If you want to use the medium or semi-bold variants, you'll need to reference them with their full names.

gonville music font results in different text fonts on Linux and Mac
Hello, I've experimentally changed my lilypond installations from feta to gonville, and while the music grobs are changed in both cases I find that on Linux debian squeeze 2.12.3 the text font remains New Century Schoolbook, while on Mac OS X 2.14.2 the text font is changed to a sans-serif/grotesk version for the entire document. Both times I unzipped gonville-r9313.zip on the relevant machine and renamed (mv) the existing fonts to a different name and instead put (mv or cp -pr) the lilyfonts directory / folder as fonts in place. The sections on the fonts look the same in 2.12.3 and 2.14.2 documentation. Is it down to the different OS (Mac vs Linux) which makes for the difference in the chosen text font? Is it to do with different fonts installed? Why does the Mac change to some sans-serif (and which one this is?) and Linux does not?

That was indeed a good idea!

There are a few ways you can do this.
For instance if you want an explicit font for a specific markup you can use
\markup { \override #'(font-name . Optima) hello }
If you wanted to override the font on a 'TextSpanner' you can use something like
\override TextSpanner #'(font-name) = Baskerville
So you can use the same method to choose a font for chord markups.
Also see:
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.13/Documentation/notation/fonts#entire-document-fonts
Where you can set the entire document so that \sans or anything that uses
'sans' as its value will use whatever font you need to use.
As to finding out what your PC has in terms of fonts and what names to use
Also see:
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.13/Documentation/notation/fonts#fonts-explained
There is a lilypond command at the end of the section that you can run on the
CLI to list out.
I hope this helps.

)“TextSpanner”,
\override TextSpanner #'(font-name) = Baskerville for example. You can
put this in your score construct so
--snip---
\version 2.13.51
MyMusic = \relative c' { a\startTextSpanner b c d | a b c d | a b c
d\stopTextSpanner }
\score {
\new Staff {
\override TextSpanner #'(font-size) = #-2
\override TextSpanner #'(font-name) = Baskerville
\relative c'' {
\MyMusic
}
}
}
--snip--
You can also put the override at the start of the music itself in a simple file
--snip--
\version 2.13.51
\relative c' {
\override TextSpanner #'(font-size) = #-2
\override TextSpanner #'(font-name) = Baskerville
a\starTextSpanner b c d | a b c d | a b c d\stoptextSpanner
}
---snip---
)if I want to change the font for chord markups? …
I'm guessing (because I don't use chords) by looking in the internals that if
you look for 'font-name' you get a hit in the section 'font-interface'.
Then if you look in 'Internal properties' lower down you can see all the 'grob
interfaces' that use this and I can see, for example 'ChordName' so you could
try
\override ChordName #'(font-name) = Baskerville or whatever font you want.
)or for
)the lyrics or the header?
Well I showed you how to change the fonts already for the header just use the
construct like
\header {
title = \markup { \override #'(font-name . Optima) This is my Header }
}
)
)For example “Score.ChordNames” doesn’t exist or at least doesn’t bear
)the font properties for the chord markup.
)
) http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.13/Documentation/notation/fonts#entire-
)docu
) ment-
) fonts
)
) Where you can set the entire document so that \sans or anything that
) uses 'sans' as its value will use whatever font you need to use.
)
)I read that before. I don’t want to change the generic aliases, but I want
)to choose them for objects where I don’t know how to do it.
You also need to take some time and look in the Learning Manual, specifically
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.13/Documentation/learning/the-internals-reference-manual
This is a very good introduction and one I learnt from on how to find this kind
of information.

Last 2.13 releases and custom text fonts
Hello,
It seems that Lilypond from 2.13.47 has problem including some text fonts
(at least on my OS X installation).
Some fonts work (Courier Neue, for instance), other do not work (Courier, or
many others including Mididesign font like Sonora or Controla). I deleted
the lilypond font cache and the fontconfig cache, but nothing change. The
only way is going back to 2.13.46 release (no problem with that release).
Console gives me that message :

There was a problem with font handling with some of the 13.4x releases -
have you tried downloading the latest 13.51 release, which has some fixes
for this?

to be pango related I think.

Fwd: Text fonts
Sorry, forgot to CC the list... -- Forwarded message -- From: Henrik Frisk fris...@gmail.com Date: Thu, Nov 25, 2010 at 9:55 AM Subject: Re: Text fonts To: Werner LEMBERG w...@gnu.org but I'm guessing /usr/share/fonts is just as good Well, yes, but I consider it a bad thing to install local stuff into the /usr tree. A better place is /usr/local/share/fonts. However, you should check /etc/fonts/conf.d whether this directory is scanned by fontconfig by default. Alas, there isn't a GUI for fontconfig yet, as far as I know, which would greatly simplify the manipulation of such issues. I can live without the GUI now that I know what to look for and where to find it. But, yes, I guess it would be nice. (since that's where the lilypond fonts live)? This is the wrong reason. LilyPond fonts could be installed at any place since it explicitly tells fontconfig to scan its own font directory. As I said, I know very little about fonts... How and when does Lilypond/fontconfig scan for new fonts? /Henrik ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
Re: Text fonts
How and when does Lilypond/fontconfig scan for new fonts? At startup, lilypond adds its own font directories to the list of directories already controlled by fontconfig. This is even controllable by the end user with ly:font-config-add-directory and ly:font-config-add-font in case you want to make more fonts known to lilypond.

Text fonts
Hi all,
I'm using a font all the time in LaTeX (Adobe's Frutiger) that I
select in my LaTeX documents with
\renewcommand{\rmdefault}{pfr}
Can I make this font selectable in Lilypond, and if so, how would I do
it? It doesn't show up in when I run:
$ lilypond -dshow-available-fonts x
I have to admit I know very little about fonts so please excuse me if
this is covered by the manual or is plain impossible. I'm running
Fedora13.
Thanks for any help,

You must put your fonts (PFB, TTF, OTF, etc.) into a directory
searched by FontConfig. On a GNU/Linux box like yours, this would be,
for example, ~/.fonts.

Wrong text fonts; no dvi
Hi all, I experience some problems with the text fonts and dvi output. These problems first appeared when after I uninstalled the Slackware package for lily 2.4.2 and then compiled and installed 2.5.26. I have now installed lily 2.6.0 (on Slackware 10.0) and they problems are still there. I have searched the mailing lists and documentation for a solution, but couldn't find it. When I compile morgenlied.ly (from examples page on the site) I do not get the CM font as in the example on the lilypond site. Look at http://www.jossmeets.nl/morgenlied.png to see what I get. When I latex any latex file I do get proper CM fonts. So I suspect it is something in the font configuration of my lily installation. Any ideas anyone?

(http://afavant.elte.hu/~wferi/debian ... has it moved somewhere else?) any idea to fix this on the debian stable? -- Unix IS user friendly , it is just selective about who his friends are JID: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://tleost.chez.tiscali.fr ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
