Comment #5 on issue 1562 by address@hidden: using \sans on Windows  
gives 'gs' error (2.13.53) fails to compile
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=1562

This was also reported by Robbie Rousseau, the link is with Windows 7  
Service Pack 1.

Before Service Pack 1

{ a b c d^\markup { \sans "hello" } }

works but after Service Pack 1 the error seems to be generic

Note that in Robbie's case he defines the issue as being to do with  
\Chordmode (both use a 'sans' font) so that might be key?

For example

{ a b c d^\markup { \italic "hello" } }

{ a b c d^\markup { \bold "hello" } }

all work without issue
