actually the links helped me a lot. navigating around the .pdf was
quite a pain in the a**, so i overlooked quite a lot of the crucial
infos.
But did you manage to set any font? How?
I found the hint that fontconfig sees from OSX's fonts only the first
style. That should read: Only single-style TrueType fonts.
It doesn't seem possible to use TT fonts in suitcases, OTF fonts, PS
fonts without screen font, some other...
Working are only single-style TT/dfonts like Papyrus, Zapfino, Impact
If I try to use some multi-style font, I always get Verdana (WTF!?
see below).
I tried this approach: (It's not in the manual, I found it in some
source file or mail.)
\paper {
myStaffSize = #20
#(define fonts
(make-pango-font-tree "Times"
"Helvetica"
"Courier"
(/ myStaffSize 20)
))
}
[one hour later]
I just dived into fontconfig configuration (http://fontconfig.org/
fontconfig-user.html)...
- Century Schoolbook is nowhere defined.
- Verdana is defined as fallback for sans-serif (but also serif fonts
fall back to Verdana!)
- LilyPond's config sets Verdana as Alias for Helvetica and Arial.
WHY? Verdana is a screen font! (aliasing Arial and Helvetica would be
ok)
- after creating my own .fonts.conf, my additional fonts folders
(e.g. TeX) are searched (i.e. a cache file is created), but the fonts
are still never used: Does LilyPond really make use of fontconfig
settings?
