There are two different aspects of the problem: - Different users should find different source files for the fonts, i.e. different feta*.mf files. This is only a problem if you have added the Lilypond mf/ directory to the texmf tree as outlined in the FAQ. As long as they are found from the setting of $MFINPUTS, that's no problem. - Generated font files should end up in different locations for the different users. The second problem is easily solved by setting the environment variable $VARTEXFONTS, which determines the directory below which the generated font files are stored. The default setting in teTeX is /var/tmp/texfonts/, which is on local disc and, thus, solves the problem. For the first one, I'm afraid you'd have to add a separate texmf tree for the Lilypond additions corresponding to one of the Lilypond versions. I should be able to guide you through such a setup if necessary. /Mats _______________________________________________ Lilypond-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
