Hi Pierre,

two things:

a)
from the Internals Manual:

font-encoding (symbol)
The font encoding is the broadest category for selecting a font.
Currently, only lilypond’s system fonts (Emmentaler) are using this
property. Available values are fetaMusic (Emmentaler), fetaBraces,
fetaText (Emmentaler).

It's currently not possible to make LilyPond accept another font as
default. The LilyJazz (and Bravura) fonts are integrated via a sort of
workaround.
Meaning every single grob needs an override to use it (and not an
override for 'font-encoding)

b)
In this case the grob you want to override is
DoublePercentRepeatCounter not PercentRepeatCounter!


{
   \jazzOn
   \set countPercentRepeats = ##t
   \override DoublePercentRepeatCounter.font-name = "LilyJAZZText"
   \repeat percent 2 { c'1 c' }

}

Cheers,
  Harm
