When I wrote the above, my rationale was that the URW fonts are Century Schoolbook font clones with identical font metrics. If someone would be to install the original Century Schoolbook fonts, he'd likely disable the URW fonts in the process (or at least put them later in the search order). Do we really want to use these particular clones in case there are supposedly metrically identical fonts installed in a preferred setting? Namely: do we actually need the URW fonts and nothing else, or do we need something that the system installation is prepared to call "Century Schoolbook"? If for some reason, only the URW version of those fonts is acceptable, the foundry=urw variant obviously is the way to go. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
