Try copying this character in there:

©

I tried the way the docs say, as well, and never got it to work. I found that if I just copied an actual copyright symbol into my files and made sure the editor was saving in utf-8 encoding, it all worked fine.

The documentation [/Lilypond notation reference.pdf/, “3.3.3 Text encoding”, pdf p. 318.] states that UTF-8 coding is used in Ly and that UTF-8 hex codes can be inserted into text. An example is given, and I show it here using the code of interest to me - that for the Copyright sign:

#(ly:export (ly:wide-char->utf-8 #xc2a9))|

|This example has no context, and when I put it in one I cannot get it to work. I suggest that the documentation be modified to give one. Meanwhile, I need a solution to the problem of how to insert a Copyright sign into the copyright line. Here's what I tried:

\header {...
copyright = "#(ly:export (ly:wide-char->utf-8 #xc2a9)) 2008"
...

It produced this in the PDF output:

#(ly:export (ly:wide-char->utf-8 #xc2a9)) 2008

Placing the UTF code export line outside of the quotes wouldn't even compile.

Can anyone suggest how to do this?

Thanks!

Tom
