hello all,

i'm running lilypond 2.19.83 (and also 2.18.2) on ubuntu 19.04. all the text fonts are coming out giant, while the notation is fine. this is happening even with old files (which used to print fine). old pdfs of those same old files are fine. i tried just this, alone in a new file:

\relative c' { c-\markup "ab" }

and the "ab" are huge, like 60 point type. additionally, the letters are almost completely on top of each other, as if they're spaced for a small font.

I've tried resetting the fonts with set-global-font, to no avail. can anyone help me debug this?

thanks in advance

Hi Peter,

I think I've seen that before here on the mailing list. I remember the fix being font-package related...

*edit* yes I've found one thread here, maybe this could help?
