Issue 541: Hebrew lyrics diacritic not well aligned
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=541
Han-Wen, Thank you for your attention to this issue.
Actually I do not know how exactly to set font in lily.
Looking at the generated PostScript file text-code,
I see (assuming I understand correctly) that I passively use:
%%BeginFont: DejaVuSans
%!PS-TrueTypeFont
11 dict begin
/FontName /DejaVuSans def
The manual shows example of,
...
\markup {
\override #'(font-name . "Vera Bold")
...
and
...
(make-pango-font-tree "Times New Roman"
"Nimbus Sans"
"Luxi Mono"
...
But I don't know how to use these commands to
efffectively set AharoniCLM-Book or CenturySchL-Rom .
Could you please send explicit .ly files that do it
for the small markup example you have suggested.
Then I will continue and generate the simple case so we can compare.
regards -- yotam
