Hi Andrew,
I think there is no any difference with your answer, but I post the
answer earlier, :-).
I have no experience with the postscript file that lilypond produced.
The two answer I post is based on my experience with postscript file
produced by R with cairo_ps device.
Best,
Jinsong
Thanks to all for the advice.
And, now with a little spare time, I checked the font list:
$ lilypond -dshow-available-fonts 2>&1 | grep 'CJK SC'
family Noto Sans CJK SC
Noto Sans CJK SC,Noto Sans CJK SC Bold:style=Bold,Regular
... and many other style variants
Unfortunately, the crash persists.
Hello Jinsong,
I am having trouble seeing how your answer is different to mine, apart from
the fact that SimHei is not installed by default on Ubuntu. [Of course, he
can pick any font he likes.] Was there something else you wanted to add
that we should know about this technique?
Andrew

Oh right, I forgot the OS. I'm on Ubuntu Studio 16.04.
I'm based in mainland China, so, simplified characters.
Btw my messages seem to be delayed pretty

Hi James,
I don't know about the crash, but on Ubuntu you can observe all the Chinese
fonts available to lilypond with:
$ lilypond -dshow-available-fonts 2>&1 | grep CJK
family Noto Sans Mono CJK JP
Noto Sans Mono CJK JP,Noto Sans Mono CJK JP Bold:style=Bold,Regular
family Noto Sans Mono CJK KR
Hi James,

I have:

}
(Roughly, "For the Xinghai Conservatory Fall 2017 Laptop Orchestra" with no
assurance of absolute correctness in the Chinese.)
