Re: Setting entire document fonts

[tisimst]

Richard,

Internally, when you call set-global-staff-size, it resets the text fonts. Thus, if you want to use a different staff size, that must go PRIOR to where you define the fonts. Kinda weird, I know, but that's how it works. 

HTH,

Following the example for setting the entire document fonts at

I constructed this code:

\version "2.18.0"
\paper  {

                          "Times New Roman"
                          (/ staff-height pt 20)))
}

{
         c'<> ^\markup {roman,
    \sans sans,
    \typewriter typewriter.} g'
}
%#(set-global-staff-size 20)
8><8><8><8><8><8><8><8><8><8><8><8><8><8><8><8><8><8><8><8><

where I have switched round the order of the fonts so that the
typewriter should show in Roman and the Roman as sans etc.
This works, but if I uncomment the set-global-staff-size line it reverts
to the default.
What is going on here? How do I set the fonts and the overall staff
size?

Richard
