Re: Other fonts than computer modern/feta nummer

[Mats Bengtsson]

In the header, you can change the fonts using standard LaTeX
commands but if you want to do some more elaborate changes to the
layout I recommend to use lilypond-book instead of ly2dvi.

The Computer Modern font family includes a number of different
fonts, so if you just want a sans serif font, you could do for
example:

\header{
  title = "\sffamily My title"
  ...
}

To get the Palatino font instead of Computer Modern in the heading, try

\header{
  latexpackages = "palatino"
  ...
}
