I found one big clue to the problem: findfont fails trying to find some Japanese font or something. A postscript file is produced without errors, but ps2pdf fails with findfont. I have to run: ps2pdf -dNOSAFER file.ly to produce the pdf. Does anybody know anything more about this issue? Does some piece of software need an upgrade?
Well, i have never understood why the LSR cannot compile the snippet ( http://lsr.dsi.unimi.it/LSR/Item?id=615 ) . I supposed that it was because the LSR runs in -JAIL or -SAFE mode. ( These modes perhaps don't allow the use of postscript instructions ?). There is perhaps a findfont issue in the code here : #(define twelfthKey-str (string-append " -1.1 0.8 moveto /(" (ly:font-config-get-font-file "Emmentaler") ") findfont 1 scalefont setfont (12) show")) (It only displays the number 12 in the lilypond font) But i don't have the rights to modify the snippet (so i cannot make some tests), and my knowledge is very low in this domain.
