In addition to what I just said, you can of course modify the
font of the stanza number, by setting properties on the
StanzaNumber layout object, for example
\override StanzaNumber #'font-shape = #'italic
Similarly, you can set the extra-offset property to move
it around relative to the lyrics.

According to the documentation,
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.8/Documentation/user/lilypond-internals/Stanza_005fnumber_005fengraver.html#Stanza_005fnumber_005fengraver
you can specify a markup as the argument. However,
when I look at the implementation, it seems that it's
only possible to specify a string.
So, we have a bug, either in the implementation or in the
documentation. Of course, the best thing would be to
fix the implementation so that you can specify a markup.
Note also that there's an additional complication, namely
that you have to do some tricks to avoid the "syntax error"
which you get for example with:
\new Lyrics \lyricsto mymelody {\set stanza = \markup{ \italic "2."}
... }
One solution is to do
\new Lyrics \with {\set stanza = \markup{ \italic "2."} }
\lyricsto mymelody { ... }
Still, as I already said, the markup will be ignored for the
moment.

Hi,
I would like to ask all of you, if there is a possibility to format
Stanza
Numbers using \markup commands (e. g. entering special characters,
altering
font-name, font-size, etc.), and altering their position relative to the
lyrics (X or Y). If yes, which is the way to do it?
Please, help!
