Hi, Peter! One thought, that you’ve possibly considered, but I’ll mention it anyway...

What I’m getting at is that you may be not seeing anything in the command prompt because nothing is printed while this font cache is being created. If you aren’t seeing an error when you try to run LP, give it some time, perhaps even 10 minutes just to be sure. It just might be this that’s causing you grief. Once the font cache is created, you’ll see the much quicker score compile times you’re used to. If you’ve gone through this exercise already and/or you’re experiencing something else then please ignore this. It’s good to know that what I’ve described is expected behavior anyway. HTH, Abraham
