Carl :  Thank you for the info.  How can I  change your display/markup font to be a font that includes CJK characters?

David points out to me (in the referenced email strings) that U+FFFD is not a CJK character, but a utf-8 unknown character.

 

You can change the markup font as described in https://lilypond.org/doc/v2.22/Documentation/notation/fonts (see the very bottom of this section for what can be done with OTF fonts, which is probably the easiest way to do it.

 

I believe that there are enough different applications handling files during the invocation of lilypond that the best thing to do is not use utf-8 characters in file names.
