Issue 699: unwanted character changes on Windows Vista http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=699
Comment #2 by v.villenave: New comment from Michael Lauer: I think it's a bug in the font itself(!). The glyph names seem to be a bit mangled; the name "N" is assigned to several codepoints, including that I-with-dot-below. (If you look in the ps file you can see that in the font definition.) [If anyone with a Vista box DOESN'T see this, what version of times.ttf do you have? Mine is 5.01.] An easy but really lousy "fix" would be to copy the old times.ttf from an XP machine into your Vista machines c:\windows\fonts directory (backing up the existing times.ttf, of course!). That would mean that all your software, most of which probably doesn't look at the glyph names, would see the old font. A somewhat better fix is to copy the old times.ttf (and the bold/italic versions, and any other system fonts you may want to use)) into c:\users\<username>\.fonts\ , and then tell fontconfig to ignore the system fonts. The only way I can see to do that is to edit c:\program files\lilypond\etc\fonts\fonts.conf and remove the line <dir>WINDOWSFONTDIR</dir> -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.
