Good morning

hm, now it works. Inspired by Daniel Fütterers post about font problems, i 
manually moved all fonts (including lilyjazz-text.otf and lilyjazz-chord.otf) 
from /Users/… / Library/Fonts to /Library/Fonts. In the fontbook.app 
preferences, the standard location for font installation was set to „computer“ 
before)
Thanks to all who helped
Christoph
