Isn't the Text Gyre Schola the default for 2.19+? My 2.18 installation appears to be using Century Schoolbook. Your comments did allow me focus my investigation. After a bit of digging, it appears that lilypond 2.18 on FreeBSD isn't recognising the CenturySchL-*.otf fonts in /usr/local/share/lilypond/2.18.2/fonts/otf correctly. I worked around this by copying the CenturySchL-*.otf files into ~/.fonts. This workaround gets me up and running again. I will possibly investigate the cause of the failure later. The 2.19 version appears to use fontconfig, which I believe is a much superior solution. Hopefully a new release will happen soon.
