Re: Stacked letters in markup

Thank you all for your suggestions and for not flooding me with RTFM. I'll go with this variation: dd = \markup { \combine \translate-scaled #'(0 . .25) D \translate-scaled #'(.5 . -.25) D } which seems to work well in combination with other, non-stacked symbols. Best Urs Am 01.10.2015
