Re: Font Problems

[Daniel Fütterer]

Hi Andrew,

thank you for your quick answer! I tried countless writings of the fonts, but none did work.

The solution was that fontconfig did’t search in the User-Fonts I stored in /Users/[Name]/Library/Fonts. I added the search part and everything worked fine. Seems to me that the relative path in fontconfig doesn’t work properly:

<dir>/usr/share/fonts</dir>

<dir>/Library/Fonts</dir>

<dir>/System/Library/Fonts</dir>

<dir>~/.fonts</dir>

An yes, that are really nice fonts since they are very noble :-)

Hi Daniel,

it just so happens I also use Linux Biolinum and Linux Libertine with lilypond.

The names need to be right, as you said.

To see all fonts you can use:

$ lilypond -dshow-available-fonts

In your case:

#:roman "Linux Libertine O"

#:sans "Linux Biolinum O"

Exactly what I use. Quite nice typefaces, heavily based on the classic Optima.
