Fonts are an issue with almost all Linux/Unix applications ported
into OS X using the Aqua interface. OpenOffice.org doesn't use fonts
correctly either (somewhat of a bigger issue in an office suite);
NeoOffice corrects this by putting a Java container around OO.o at
the cost of performance and battery life on laptops. Not being a
programmer, I have no idea why this is. I suspect the same issues
are at work in LilyPond which just may not know that the OS X native
fonts are stored at /System/Library/Fonts, ~/Library/FontCollections
*and* ~/Library/Fonts for some reason.
It would be nice to be able to use the native OS X fonts and to have
a "Real Book" style font (which does exist for OS X but is not
accessible by LilyPond). Unfortunately I have no idea how to make
that sort of thing happen, so good luck to you with this!
