I have the font in my ~/.fonts directory, have refreshed my cache, and can
use it in other programs (LibreOffice, etc.). The font also shows up with
"lilypond -dshow-available-fonts x"
I am trying to call it in this way:
gyro = \markup {
\fontsize #4 \override #'(font-name . "Finale Percussion") { ! }
}
This works on Windows, but does not seem to work on Linux despite the font showing up with the above command.
Interesting... That is strange that a word-processing program works fine without doing anything, but not LP. I think the problem is the binary format of some Finale font files. When I converted it to a generic .OTF file, it worked for me. Do you have the capability to do this?
