Re: Hi someting Wicked this way came: problems with fonts on Easy lilypond 2.10.33?

[Mats Bengtsson]

If you search the mailing list archives, you can find some
reports that LilyPond is very slow on Vista, since for some
reason the font name database is rebuilt every time you
run LilyPond, not only the first time after installation as
is normally the case. A short description and a proposed
workaround is described at
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=545&q=vista

I have not heard about your specific problem before, but
since it's font related, the workaround might solve also
your problem if you are lucky.
