Re: Lilyjazz font and Score.markFormatter problem with Lily 2.23.6

[Knute Snortum]

How did you install the LilyJAZZ fonts?  If you go to this URL...

https://github.com/OpenLilyPondFonts/lilyjazz

...and click on the green Code button, you can download the fonts as a Zip file.  Unzip it somewhere, then follow the instructions in the LilyPond-Fonts-and -Installation-Guide.txt file.  Note that where you put the fonts must match the version of LilyPond you're using, if you have multiple versions.

Hello Knute,

Your example runs here too, giving:

What I’d like is to have the chord names such Em7 in the lilyjazz font too, though.

Thanks if you can help!

Any hint why the chord names don’t use the lilyjazz font?

\paper {
#(define fonts
   (set-global-fonts
    #:music "lilyjazz"
    #:brace "lilyjazz"
    #:roman "lilyjazz-text"
    #:sans "lilyjazz-chord"
    #:chords "lilyjazz-chord"

You don't need all the fonts defined in the \paper section, and I
don't think you have needed them since 2.19.11.  The code below works
for me:

%%%
\version "2.23.6"

\include "jazzchords.ily"
\include "lilyjazz.ily"
\include "jazzextras.ily"

\markup { Some text }

myChordSequence = \chordmode {
 \set chordChanges = ##t
 %\set chordNameExceptions = #chExceptions
 e2:m7 a:7 | e:m7 a:7 |
}

Part_POne_Staff_One_Voice_One = \absolute {
 \language "nederlands"

 \set Score.rehearsalMarkFormatter = #format-mark-box-letters
 %  \set Score.rehearsalMarkFormatter = #format-mark-box-alphabet % pour le "I"
 \override Score.RehearsalMark.font-size = #+5
 \textLengthOn

 \key d \major

 \mark \default

 \clef "treble"
 b'8 [ a' b' a'  ~ ] a' b'4. | % 6
 \barNumberCheck #2
 r8 b'4. a'8 b'4. ^\markup {\musicglyph #"scripts.segno" } | % 7
 \barNumberCheck #3
 | % 7
}

\score {
 <<

   \new ChordNames \myChordSequence

   \new Staff = "Part_POne_Staff_One"
   \with {
   }
   <<
     \context Voice = "Part_POne_Staff_One_Voice_One" <<
       \Part_POne_Staff_One_Voice_One

}
%%%
