Thanks.  Remember, though, that when we're answering mail we're not 
fixing bugs.

Font-selection is on our (mental?) todo list.  However, you can 
overwrite paper-variables:

      \score {
          ...
        \paper {
          magnification_dynamic = 1.;
        }
      }

Look in the example files input/test/*, and see if they work.  They should.
Are they missing in print, or just on the screen?  Do you have GhostScript
installed?  On unix, Xdvi uses ghostscript to display embedded PostScript,
that may not work on Windows.

Greetings,
