Re: Overlap markup

[SoundsFromSound]

Hi Ed,

FYI: the font in your PNG is nothing like that which I am seeing here on my
end with your code. When I input your code, I see no "place" for the line of
text to overlap /to /- the "Y" is inline with other letters of the word and
so I'm confused how you want to tuck the other line of text up there.

How are you going to get the PNG font in your LilyPond code, what's your
plan?

See attached image.
