Use
\override Score.LyricText #'font-size = #0.8
and set the last number as you need (default is 1).
Unfortunately, this does not work with the pango-fonts, only with
the default CM fonts.
No! The default fonts are not CM but Century Schoolbook and it
certainly should work with any pango-fonts. Try for example:
\paper {
myStaffSize = #20
#(define fonts
(make-pango-font-tree "Freestyle script"
"Freestyle script"
"Freestyle script"
(/ myStaffSize 20)))
}
\relative c' {c d }
\addlyrics { ABCDE \override LyricText #'font-size = #+5 ABCDE }
I also noted that you had played around with several numbers. The idea
is that the value of myStaffSize should correspond to the staff size
used for the music, for example
#(set-global-staff-size 15)
\paper{
myStaffSize = #15
...
}
and you shouldn't touch the last argument of make-pango-font-tree,
where (/ myStaffSize 20) simply is Scheme syntax to calculate
the value of myStaffSize divided by 20, which normally will lead
to a good match between the music and the text fonts. Of course, if you
find that the result is consistently too small or large for
a particular font, then you can change one of these values, but it
doesn't make sense to change both (I would change myStaffSize and
keep the division by 20).
