Re: Lilypond slow on Windows Vista

[Tomas Kaiser]

Here is what worked for me. I am using LilyPond 2.11.37-1 and Windows Vista.

(1) I replaced LilyPond/usr/bin/fontconfig-1.dll with the version from
http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/gnome/binaries/win32/dependencies/fontconfig-2.4.2-tml-20071015.zip
(as suggested by David Gippner (dgippner) at www.lilypondforum.de),

(2) then I had to replace LilyPond/usr/bin/fc-cache.exe with the version
from the MiKTeX 2.6 distribution at
http://www.ctan.org/get/systems/win32/miktex/tm/packages/miktex-fontconfig-bin-2.6.tar.bz2.

Hope this helps,
Tomas
