Okay, that works good. I also added
\override StanzaNumber #'font-family = #'sans
for the stanza numbers to be in the same style.
But for consictency I´d like to have some other fonts also being Sans,
e.g. the font of the volta brackets. I couldn´t find something about
it in the manual.
I tried to add
\override VoltaText #'font-family = #'sans
to the above, but it didn´t help.
And is there a way to set the default font for markups to Sans?
Thanks,
Dominic
