Urs, All of my contributions to IMSLP are LilyPond typesets, but it would require some work to list them and classify them. I suspect none of them have one-off tweaks but all of them probably are in a "house style" since they are created by Denemo. I am not even quite sure how to reference them -

Hi Janek, I think it would be interesting to know more about of your changes to the Feta font. Your example looks very nice, and the font can be a little heavy I think. Best Peter Bjuhr On 09/02/2013 03:59 PM, Janek Warchoł wrote: Hi, 2013/9/2 Urs Liska : Hi, I'm compiling a selection o
