As long as this is per-grob, and not global, I'm fine with it. > a feature like this would come in handy for eps inclusions, too Interesting! > My estimations in such situations go horribly wrong each time, so > I just state "I don't know" for safety reasons ;-) =) Hopefully someone else will respond. A while ago I paid Mike Solomon to make a "Band-Aid™ Solution": \version "2.17" #(define ((set-abs-fontsize n) grob) (grob-interpret-markup grob (markup #:abs-fontsize n (ly:grob-property grob 'text)))) \layout { \context { \Lyrics \override LyricText #'stencil = #(set-abs-fontsize 30) } } \relative c' { e4 e e e } \addlyrics { foo bar foo bar } Now I'm hoping we can make Lilypond "Do The Right Thing™" out of the box. This might be a job for GLISS… whenever the heck that happens.
