Font Problems

[Daniel Fütterer]

Hello,

I want to use alternative fonts for my documents, but I have problems including them. I’m using 2.18.2 with the patch for alternative music fonts (which all work fine).

I tried the following snippets within the \paper-variable:

#(define fonts

    (set-global-fonts

        #:music "scorlatti"

        #:roman "libertine“

        #:sans "biolinum“

        #:factor (/ staff-height pt 20)

    )

)

and:

#(define fonts

    (make-pango-font-tree

        "libertine“

        "biolinum“

        "libertine mono“

        (/ staff-height pt 20)

    )

)

I tried some different fonts, including Charter (worked) and Alegerya Sans (didn’t work). So I believe it’s the name I have to use, but I can’t figure out how to get that. The fonts are all installed on my system (MacBook, El Capitan) as (lots of) otf files.

Thank you for your help,

Daniel
