Hi everyone!
I just downloaded Lilypond 2.18.2-1— previously, I worked with 2.12.3-1. With
that version, when I wanted a font on the system to use with the lyrics what
used work with this:
LyricGaramond = \override LyricText #'font-name = #”Garamond Premier Pro"
doesn’t work anymore, i.e, the file processes except that I don’t get the
Garamond font. I have found the place in the documentation that speaks of
“entire document fonts”, suggesting:
\paper {
#(define fonts
(make-pango-font-tree "Times New Roman"
"Nimbus Sans"
"Luxi Mono"
(/ staff-height pt 20)))
But I can’t seem to make it work. It just keeps the default font in place.
Here’s a sample of what I’m doing (with XeLaTeX):
\layout {
\context {
\Score
\remove "Bar_number_engraver"
}
\context {
\Staff
\remove "Time_signature_engraver"
}
}
TimeKey = {\key f \major}
Music = \relative c' { \set Score.timing = ##f
\set autoBeaming = ##f
f8 g a4 a8 a bes bes a4 \bar"|" f8 g a4 a \bar"|"\break
bes8 bes a4 g \bar"|" g8 g f g a4 a8 g f2 \bar"|." }
LyricGaramond = \override LyricText #'font-name = #"Garamond Premier Pro"
StanzaGaramond = \override StanzaNumber #'font-name = #"Garamond Premier Pro"
VerseOne = \lyricmode { \LyricGaramond \StanzaGaramond
\set fontSize = #1.2 \set stanza = "All: " “I am tru -- ly the Bread of
Life, who will grant you
life e -- ter -- nal, if you eat my Bo -- dy in
faith.”
}
\score {
\new Staff <<
\new Voice = "Monks" { \voiceOne \TimeKey \Music }
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "Monks" {
\override LyricText #'font-name = #"Garamond Premier Pro"
\VerseOne }
>>
}
Any help is greatly appreciated — I’ll pray for you!
