Re: font size in \addLyrics{}

Hi Gerard,

In the following I want to change the text font size

More to the point, you want to change the LyricText #'font-size.  ;)

misplaces the text

Partly, that's because you surrounded your entire lyric line in quotes, so that Lilypond tried to attach it to a single note.

Hopefully the attached modified version will help.
Kieren.
