Re: How to select lyrics font?

[Kieren MacMillan]

Hi Mirko,

> a) Can I set a default font family (or even default font) for _lyrics_ (not 
> markup)? If so, how?

\layout {
  \context {
    \Lyrics
    \override LyricText.font-name = #”Crimson Text"
  }
}

> b) Is this described somewhere in the documentation? If so, where?

It’s fundamentally described at 
<http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.18/Documentation/notation/fonts#single-entry-fonts>.
You just need to adapt that to LyricText (as I did, above).

Hope this helps!
Kieren.
