Dear all,
I like to use the Romande ADF font family [1] in one of my scores. I do
the usual rule-of-three with
\paper { ... (make-pango-font-tree
"Romande ADF No2 Std" "Romande ADF Std" "monospace"
(/ myStaffSize 20)) ... }
(If you wonder, No2 is condensed, and the non-condensed version, used in
the headers, is mapped to sans for easy access.)
However, here's the catch: Romande does offer a bold variant, but it
announces it as "DemiBold" instead of "Bold", according to fc-list. I
know that I can switch to the different font each time I need bold, but
that's an utter nuisance.
Is there any way to tell Lily how to choose a bold variant? Bonus points
if it only applies to a specific, say, the serif font. Or, <wishlist to
follow>, if it is possible to define a mapping similar to
myserif = { regular: # default
"Romande ADF No2 Std:style=Regular",
bold: # choose way of selecting bold
"Romande ADF No2 Std:style=DemiBold",
italic: # pretend I don't like Romande's italics
# and need to scale some other font to match
"Gentium:style=Italic:scaling=0.93",
bold-italic: # use small caps family instead
"Romande ADF Style Std:style=Regular" }
...
\paper { #(define fonts (myserif mysans mymono (/ myStaffSize 20)) }
Obviously, that's not Lily's syntax, but you get the point...
Thanks in advance,
Alexander
