I’m using Computer Modern in my score to match the surrounding text (set in LaTeX). However, I discovered that the french quotes (guillemet) display differently in the lyrics, compared to the TeX text (see attached image).
After digging into it, I found that the Computer Modern font contain different glyph variants of the guillemet, encoded to the same codepoint in the font. LaTeX chooses a specific variant because of the language context (I think), while lilypond uses the default glyph.
So, the question is: Is it possible to choose glyph variants for text in lilypond?
(Plan B would be to edit the font file in FontForge and replace the default glyph with the variant I want, but I wouldn’t do that unless I really have to…)
