That makes sense; it's ghostscript that's broken.
If I specify Postscript for the output, the resulting PS file will
not open in Preview (nor for that matter in GraphicConverter, which
reports the file as corrupt). However, the PS file *will* open in
KGhostView and KPDF (both running in XDarwin) and appear to be fine.
This is normal.
In what sense? I can use Preview (and GraphicConverter) to open PS files
that I had previously created with LP, it's only PS files I'm creating
now that are problematic.
See the "notes for the OSX app" in the unstable docs; I changed them
about a month ago. Follow those new instructors, and let me know if
that improves things.
Went through that, but it made no difference.
However, I had wondered if there was a font issue - it occurred to me
that the thing that is different about the chord names compared to other
text on the page is they appear in a sans serif font - so I added
\override ChordName #'font-family = #'roman
to my file... and now LP typesets the file without error!
So is the problem ghostscript or the sans serif font being used? And
exactly which font is it, anyway?
